Ditto on that! You did a quality job organizing this contest, Eddie. I had a blast participating. Adding a touch of competition to anything always fires up my engine! Hopefully we get ice like this for years to come. I've been told, and do believe, that weather conditions like these are cyclical. If that's the case, we hypothetically should have a few more years of ice like we've had... Fingers crossed!

It was my pleasure to fish with most of the guys involved and I'd like to personally thank everyone involved for making this contest a success. I will send PM's to the winners so I can get the prizes out as soon as possible. Hopefully everyone had a great year on the ice, I know I did. Thanx again fellas!

Thanks for organizing it Eddie. Lots of nice fish came up this winter. Always a lil sad to see the ice melt.

WOW, awesome job !!! What a winter it was. Most of the big lakes with better than 2 feet of ice, amazing. Congrats to all the hearty souls that hit the hard water and got it done.
