That's great news, If you guys reading this are within driving distance you are crazy not to check this derby out. It's an overnight derby for a great cause. I have gone to this one from the first year and will not miss it. The guys that run it are all great guys, sorry the women too. At the dinner after the derby if you leave hungry there is something wrong with you. Also the prizes that are raffled off are top notch. Last year they surprised everyone and had a sweet SHANTY and other gear to go with it. 3 years ago I won a new AUGER. 10" Eskimo. Oh and the cash prizes aren't bad either. HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE.(((((FLAG))))) :tipup:
If fishing was work I'd never be sick!

This tourney is in Memory Of a Friend that died in a car accident two weeks before graduating from college.

That is how it came about.

All weigh ins on the ice. Fish must be alive for weigh in.
Pike And Bass Category
Heaviest 3 fish for each category.
BASS           Pike                          Heaviest Pickerel
1st $500      1st $500                           $50     
2nd $200     2nd $200
3rd $100      3rd $100
After the fishing we have a outstanding meal at the PNA hall in Adams. Where we hand out fish prizes and the numerous amounts of Chinese raffle prizes. We also give a grand prize of a 10' Eskimo Shark Power Auger Away. This is all comes with the one ticket.
All for $20. Everyone seems to really enjoy it.
If anyone has any other questions feel free to ask. I will do my best to answer them.

It is right on Route 8 Cheshire MA. We are roughly a hour from Albany, New York. I would guess that we are about a hour North of the New York , Connecticut and Mass border. I hope that helps a little.

There is one already in print. Can not tell you though.Sorry! But you wont be disappointed. Have we let you guys down yet.  :)
But I will definitely take suggestions for years to come. It is starting to get a little difficult to come up with ideas year after year.
