JBone Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Gunna be a first for me and a few buddies. What to expect? What is the depth of the holes? Hoping for warm temps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crappieking54 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 lots of people if the weather is nice... the depth varies across the fishing area and really also on where exactly they put the fishing area... if I remember correctly from years past anywhere from 15-30 ft deep?? someone correct me if I am remembering wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
so haaad Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Some years it's been as shallow as 8 feet. Lots of the perch and panfish will come from the shallows. There's also a 15-18' break in that area that northerns and eyes will travel. Try near an edge if you can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

so haaad Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I did it one year. It was fun in a social kind of way and ended up winning a new Strikemaster with a big perch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALEX EYES Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I have fished the tourney every year since it started. They move it back and forth each year. It usually has depths from 6' to 40'. Just about every year it's been colder than hell and windy. Took 9th place a few years ago and got a set of atv ramps, maybe I'll get the atv to go with it this year. Bring a chisel as we drill the holes on friday afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
