Flaming Gorge Burbot Bash Cancelled
« on: Jan 21, 2015, 11:51 AM »
Saw this on several other Forums so just in case anyone in Idaho was going here's whats been posted:

"Ok, I'm just the messenger. I just got word from the Daggett County office and Brian Raymond, the Daggett County Economic Development Director, that the Flaming Gorge Chamber of Commerce has cancelled the Burbot Bash due to deteriorating and dangerous ice conditions. That's all I know. I don't have any other answers. I was just asked if I can pass this along. Heads up. If I hear anything to the contrary, I'll post it"

Its been a very strange winter and ice conditions including an ice fishing angler's body was recovered yesterday from Flaming Gorge Lost Dog area.  Guy drowned on Sunday dive teams recovered his body...he was on 1.50" of ice and fishing alone.  Sad....

Prayers going out for the family. Reminds us to be cautious out there. It has been frustrating with lack of hard water.

The fisherman was a fellow IS member. I hear he was pretty experienced hard water guy. There is quite a bit on the Wyoming board about it. everyone be extra careful. The ice and conditions are very strange this year.

It's really easy to get over confident.   :(


Expensive and painful warning for his family to the rest of us.
