Title: Dock tournament
Post by: Nwohioiceman123 on January 29, 2013, 08:39:44 PM
I was wondering if there was going to be a dock tournament this weekend. I doubt there will be any safe ice near and want to do some type of fishing.

It is a event that Big Daddy is doing for Harvest for Hunger. It is 10.00 per person or team. If we fish the winner gets bragging rights and I believe a trophy because all the money is going to charity. Here is the info I copy and pasted from his post
2nd Annual Ice Out Hunger Icefishing Tournament WHERE: Wingfoot State Park WHEN: February 2, 2013 7:30AM til 2:30PM WHY: To help the Akron Canton Foodbank restock their shelves after the bust Holiday season COST: Entry fee is $10 per 1 or 2 person team. 100% of fees collected go to the foodbank.
This is a "bragging rights" event. There will be trophies given to the top 3 places in ADULTS (16 and over) and KIDS (15 and younger)
Entering the event will get you a raffle ticket for a door prize from one of our sponsors: Mogadore Bait and Tackle, Portage Lakes Bait and Tackle, Gone Fishin' Bait and Tackle, Finny's Custom Rods, and Ice Fish Ohio. If you would like to donate a prize to our raffle, give me a call or shoot me an email [email protected]
This is an "AT YOUR OWN RISK" event. There will be a safety talk prior to heading out on the ice. If the ice is deemed unsafe, we will still hold the awards/prize giveaway party.
This event is about giving back and helping those in need. We have a lot of sponsors who have stepped up including JoAnn Fabric and Craft stores, WKYC, Inside the Great Outdoors Radio, www.ohiogamefishing.com (http://www.ohiogamefishing.com), www.icefishohio.com (http://www.icefishohio.com) plus those I mentioned above.
Registrations are the morning of the event starting at 6AM at the PINETREE LODGE at Wingfoot State Park in Suffield, Ohio.
If you have ANY questions, email me at [email protected] and I will get back with you. Thanks!
