Since Tom had a lot more free time on his hands this year(due to the fish drought that found him in 1997),
he could engage in more conversation with Chris Znoj...
Pete & Tom setting their Cusk Lines, they look like Team Marlboro Ice Fishing, but by the way they
get along
you might think otherwise...
Snapshots from the weekend...
Kevin, chillin' in the ice house (actually it's quite warm in there)
Thats me, Chris, setting up a tip up...
We saw a lot of this face that year...DIGRUNTLED!
My ingenious contraption: The Bait Box! Talk about lively bait! This box keeps smelt,
shiners, suckers, or whatever baitfish you use alive for WEEKS! Unfortunately vandals broke into it the week
following the derby. I don't know what they were expecting to find, but they smashed it up good.
Never fear however, because coming in February 1998,....The Bait Box II !
