    I’m looking forward to seeing both of you guys for the contest.It should be a fun time.There will be a local newspaper article running in the near future,plus I’ll start to put flyers out in the baitshops.
    I hope we can build this into a “big and bad” contest.
    Thanks for the support.

    Is this 100% payout? Whats the payout scale like? Just make it a winner take all! I would be really satisfied when I win $1750!! And then the big fish pot on top of that. That would take care of a little of my ice fishing “debt”!!

    100 % payback?? It would be nice if tourneys were that simple and cheap to organize,plus door prizes,trophys,flyers,etc.It all adds up.
    I won’t have any idea until we see how many enter.

    Todd,I’ll get your form out asap.

    Thanks Ryan. I posted the info on the Nebraska Walleye Assn message board too. Lot of ice fisherman down here love panfish.

    BTW – what’s it going to take to win this tourney?

    What’s ice usually…. like then

    Is it a walk out deal – 4 wheeler?

    Just curious.

    Todd,there are some very good anglers that will enter this event.So I except the 10 biggest gills to weigh from 5-6#’s if they find some good sized ones.
    We will have good ice easy by then.
    As far as traffic on the ice.If it’s safe for sleds and 4 wheelers then by all means we will let people use them.
    What I’ll do is release people like at 6:30 a.m.,that way it will allow people to get to their spots,setup,and ready to fish.At 7:00 a.m. we will start to fish.
    Thanks for your interest and help getting this event going.Ice Team used to come to the area but have left the area.
    Right now I have 10 teams entered and paid,so 40 spots left right now.

    If we bring an ATV to Iowa do we have to get it licenced or get some kind of permit? I thought I remember hearing something about this at a tournament I went to in Council Bluffs.

    Ben,I’ll get a form out to you asap.
    As far as the 4-wheeler you’ll need to have it licensed,orange safety flag on the back,60″‘s off the ground.
    Also for you Nebraska guys,while your up here you better look at the homes around the area.I’m sure you’ll want to stay in Iowa.

    Dave, Todd and I might have an extra bed open. I will check with Ben Garver and see if he’s decided to attend or not. I had offered it to him first but if he doesn’t want it it’s open. I think Sean Lyon is going too. We might even be able to put a cot in the room and just pay a little extra to Ryan. We’ll check with Ryan on that.

    How far of a drive is this from the LaCrosse area? Sounds like there might be a road trip coming up The lake sounds like a challenge to catch fish in the clear waters

    Ryan, You might check with the local CO reference some of the out of state atv’ers and registration exemption:

    321G.8 EXEMPT VEHICLES.
    Registration shall not be required for the following described
    snowmobiles:
    1. Snowmobiles owned and used by the United States, another
    state, or a political subdivision of another state.
    2. Snowmobiles registered in a country other than the United
    States used within this state for not more than twenty consecutive
    days.
    3. Snowmobiles not registered or licensed in another state or
    country being used in this state while engaged in a special event and
    not remaining in the state for a period of more than ten days.
    4. Snowmobiles used exclusively as farm implements.
    [C71, 73, 75, 77, 79, 81, § 321G.8]
    89 Acts, ch 244, §13; 2002 Acts, ch 1027, §6; 2004 Acts, ch 1132,
    §9; 2005 Acts, ch 138, §8
    Check paragraph #3. Also the orange flag which was 321G.13 para 9 I’m sure has been repealed but double check it also. I’m not updated as I use to be.
