What Fish will win the derby??
« on: Feb 21, 2006, 02:12 PM »
just curious as to your thoughts......I am gonna have to say Muskie :-\

I think it will be a togue. there will be a lot of people on what ice is available. Last week a lot of Deep Cove was set up pretty good. Don't know what the wind did to it?

I agree I think a muskie will win. I hope a big Laker is produced.

I think someone will catch a monster togue right in close to shore on Sebago. Im gonna say it will go somewhere between 21 and 23 pounds.  Second place will be my 40+ inch 21lb Pike from the secret spot. 3rd place will be a Muskie brought in at the last minute but now heavy enough to win it all. ;D
I know exactly where Chilly caught that hog and im going to set up my trap 2 feet to the left and 1 foot to the right of his and whaaaaaaaam the boat is all mine. ;D :P

i'm betting a fat togue from up north.  22lbs.  and to get a heavy fish, its all about girth.  find one with a nice pot-bellly full of suckers (or small salmon) and that'll tack on another 5lbs to a fish.

As long as a Pike does not win I will be happy, The big fat Laker from up north will take it.

Welcome to the forum Grand Laker and I totally agree with you, only a Lake Trout should win the Sebago tourney!

i'm thinking a laker from green lake ,schoodic lake or eagle lake, maybe beech hill will take it. i dont know if sebago is set up enough to get to where the big boys roam it would be nice to see a 20 # come from bago, we will soon find out.
