Hi folks. Wanted to remind all the good folks in Wyoming of the 2012 Burbot Bash, Jan 25th through 28th! Post your burbot pics on this thread from the tournament.
These ugly, tasty dogs were illegally stocked, and are killng the local lakers and smallmouth. We need to get rid of as many of them as we can before they spawn and continue to erode the fishery in the Gorge. The Utah DWR and the Wyoming Fish and Game folks have teamed up with four local Chambers of Commerce and a whack of sponsors to hook 'em and cook 'em! PK Lures has donated prize packs that will be awarded at the end of the tournament, and if you catch a tagged fish you can pick up $2500.00. If you're going fishing anyway, why not head to the Gorge? If you have PK's in your box, try our Red Dot Glow 1/4 and 3/8 oz PK Spoons and Flutterish -- Firetiger Glow works almost as well. Couple links, and a pick of a huge Saskatchewan burbot caught in December on our gear to whet your appetite -- bit of drawn butter and you've got more "poor man's lobster" than you can eat.
Good luck, and POST YOUR PICS!
