sleded Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 just wondering who's going out on sunday to binbrook for the derby?
nautifish Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 Sinns & I are heading out there in the morning.
Spiel Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 I know FishFarmer will be there. Me, I might come out with the dog for a walk about, we'll see. If'n I do and you see this pup running about, give me holler.
nautifish Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 I'll give ya a hollar if i see ya Spiel..... Right this grl is going fishing......
jediangler Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 Better wear your chest waders and PFD if you are going out on the ice after today. Safety first.
mjack 7 Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 Better wear your chest waders and PFD if you are going out on the ice after today. Safety first. No offence but we have been building ice for the past 45 days, It does not get destroyed in a day by 5 degree temps. There is 12 to 15"of ice on binbrook if anyone is interested.
jediangler Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 Welcome to the board mjack7. I was referring to the water that will be on top of the ice after today's melt. I'm sure the ice will still be there underneath a foot or so of water and slush. Looking forward to the report and pics tomorrow.
joonmoon Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 (edited) Make sure when you release the fish that they actually make it down the hole and not swimming on top of the ice...lol. Been there done that. Good luck to everyone and don't be surprized if there was more melting than you thought. Its not staying very cold at night and won't be for several days. Wear your float suits and rubbers, its gonna be soggy. Edited February 8, 2009 by joonmoon
Fish Farmer Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 Seen a video on another site. I'll be wearing my high insulated rubber boots. The water slush looked 4 to 6" . Could ruin a good day with wet cold feet.
jediangler Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 How did it go? Did any OFNCer's make it out?
nautifish Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 (edited) Yup i made it out.......Was late getting there though allmost 10.30am as a few things unexpected popped up early am..... But we still headed through and fished through till allmost 1.00pm....I had two bumps that was it.....Sinns did not even get a bump....A group of fellas to the left of us had got there early am and between six of them had 30 crappie.....But it pretty much died they said when we got there and left not long after we arrived......Because i did not fish the derby i was fishing the west side of the xmas trees away from the people that were fishin the tourney. We left around 1.00pm and headed to LPB and fished out of old cut through till 4.30pm. I hope everyone did better than we did today... Binbrook this morning. Edited February 8, 2009 by nautifish
