Tobacco Gardens Resort and Restraunt re-opened on the 7th.  we will be open Thursday through sunday.  9:00am - 8:00pm.  we are stocked with bait, tackle, beer, food and gas.  701-842-4199.

fishing has been slow for the most part, but picked up this weekend.  25 to 30 fow.  jigs and minnows.   ice is 14 to 18 inches with a fair amount of snow on top.  lots of houses around the beacon area, but most success that was reported to me came from Floyds point (first point out of the bay on the east)

good luck

Rex

This tournament hasn't been talked about much recently but was discussed in a few other forums.  I thought it would give something for those that got canceled on by the Skunk Bay tournament to do.

Here's the news release related:

Yeah we had a pretty good day... the weather was great, the action was consistent, and we came out on top!  We were all set up before 7:30 and didn't have a bite until after 8:30 but then after that they would come in bunches.  We never went more than an hour without any action.  Some of the action were cats, northern and ling but the sauger were around all day too.  The fish really didn't like horizontal jigs, or anything jigging, most of them came on deadsticks.  Flyer and buckshot and hawger spoons were best for us.  We caught fish anywhere from 23-36 feet.  We had 6 fish by noon then slowly improved until we caught our tenth weigh fish at 5:04.  We had 12.61 pounds on the scale but that was including the bag so it was prolly more like 11.5 or so.


The turnout was a little smaller than i had hoped but there was alot of things going on last weekend, and I think the snow on the ice kept alot of people home(it is DEEP).  I thought they did a great job with the tourney, even delivered burgers for lunch!!!  Hopefully next year more people will come out.  Its a good time, a real ice fishing tournament, and all for a good cause.

Talk Rex into President's Day weekend.  Then I can fish.  Plus, have that Monday off to partake in "real" festivities .

I am surprised at the fishing.  They always been going like that or what?  Heard the opposite but that was a couple weeks ago.  Tis time for things to pick up.  Hope it does because I'm itchin...

A Big thank you to all who attended and helped make this tournament a success.
and an extra special thanks to all the volunteer's who made everything run smooth.
I could not think of a thing I would change, except maybe a little less snow on the ice.
fishing was great, and so were the people.  Definitely looking forward to next year.
and yes Tim I think we should work on timing a little more to see if we can get some more people there.

Thanks again,

Rex
