If I catch the squirrel I have traps set for today I will be up tomorrow. If I don’t catch it I’m on call and will have to stay home.

I encourage anybody looking for something to do tomorrow to support Mike and his crew , they work hard to put on a quality product. The Wiggin family are rock solid too boot.  I'll be out with a crew of locals in full support,  any of you I.S. veterans please say hi at the weigh in.  Mike will make sure the kids get taken care of as well!😎

[Sawyerjosh]

I’ll be there!  Gotta get online snd buy my tickets. Got easy access to Great Pond so that’s where we will be.

[Mike G]

Thanks guys.   Have fun out there!   Hope you catch a big one!

[Coach]

Gearjamer, Sports kid #1Bassfisher and myself will be up there

Any update?

I think it was 18,17, and 12 but I'm sure Mike will update his page.  8 was the best one we could muster.  Heartbreak of the day was watching a 3-4  pound brown come unbuttoned at the hole and slide through my fingers up to my shoulder on the hole only to find out no browns entered , hate it when that happens!😥  some snotty out there, woodstove working overtime last night to dry things out.😁  congrats to Mike and crew, can't wait to do it again!😎

Slush city after today in the Belgrades,  be safe boyz.

Damn that sucks. Any idea what the winning brown was?

I feel like those are low numbers for the winning pike.

I think those are pretty indicative of a dead full moon and low pressure moving in on top of everyone mid morning nick.

Weather must have been a big Factor.

Wouldn’t the bite have been good then? Haha

My 1st Flag was a Brookie before I even got my 2nd trap in and thought I was off to a GREAT start, then 1 Mudpuppy

Gearjamer caught a Brookie sooner after

#1Bassfisher got the trifecta on the Mudpuppies, then pulled his traps and moved them to a new spot and than got 1 flag that took his bait

Sportskid , no flags
