If you're down the night before, be sure to look for us at Crabby Joe's or at the motel.
 
If you're just coming down the day of the challenge, then yes, you can pay at the Herchimer launch before heading out. We're encouraging people to pay early and qualify for the earlybird draw but we understand not everyone can or will do so.
 
We'll have the guide services of Muddy Waters Guide Service, so Dan and company are pretty good about putting us on some fish. Hopefully we'll have some reports from the week prior on where we stand a good chance. It's more fun when we fish as a group ,but we're not forcing people on where they have to fish.

Im sure by the time this event comes around there will be sufficient ice my one worry is always the narrows for atv/rhino any vechile might be unsafe to hit that area....  Im praying the cold stays but this winter is so hard to predict even the weather man has been all over the place with 14 day trends.   I will do my best to keep updating everyone with ice conditions, fish reports and such.  Want this to be a great safe weekend for all, catching fish is a bonus.  Praying we get nasty cold days till the challenge!    Ive been telling all my fishing buddys about this hoping we have a great turn out and people from all over this great province and maybe some of our neighbours from down south!!!!
