As reported earlier, the Fishing Derby is GO for February 10-11. In addition to the Friday night Ice Fishing Panel Discussion at Mill Falls, another NEW event associated with the Derby will take place on Saturday February 10. This will be a FREE ice fishing clinic designed for youngsters (directed toward kids 12 and under), but FREE to everyone. Karina Jolles, who is the coordinator for NH Fish & Game's "Let's Go Fishing" Department, will conduct this fun event.

The 1st Annual Derby Ice Fishing Clinic will take place at 11am and again at 2pm on the ice, near the Derby Headquarters trailer on Meredith Bay (near the boat ramp). A roped-off area near the trailer will be secured and clearly marked with signs.

The presentation will address questions like: Why people ice fish. How do you ice fish? How to drill a hole using an auger. How to rig and bait a tip-up. What type of bait to use. How to land and clean your fish. How to stay warm. How to register your fish and be eligible for BIG prizes.

So, get ready, dress warmly, and come learn the secrets of ice fishing!!!
See you there.
