  Rumor has it that Wildlife has been very busy working on his new Trappers hat.  I think it's going to be a winner. :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

 :scratch:   My guess is 83-85 inches to win.  If I am correct you will need to upgrade at least 2 of your fish.  Anyone else want to take a guess on the winning total?

Itll take less than that - I am thinking the winning team will have a 34" pike, 29" eye and a 12" perch.... so what is that.... 75".  I think if a team can get over that - they are in good shape!  My team is right on track - now we just need the pike and the bigger eye and we will be atop the leaderboard once again!
The view from the top was nice while it lasted!

DDS We will be upgrading fish from here on out!!!  :dancinred:

MTCOMMER That was a short time on the top and if you are looking at a 75 you will not be on top at the end!!!   :cry: :cry:

  I think a 15-16 inch crappie will take the panny top spot.

    :sorry:  I should have listened to you guys. 3 of our 4 leader board guys  have been hit by flying plastic lids and are incapacitated at the moment.  The 4th is under his bed trying to avoid being hit by a deadly cottage cheese lid.   I'm sure once all the sutures are placed and the protective gear updated there will  be a big fish listing.  Who, besides the "Ice Walkers", would have thought a plastic chip dip lid could be more deadly than a ninja star?   :doah:   :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

   Important Reminder for all Contestants in the MNO Ice fishing Challenge


  We will have several contests throughout this challenge.  You must have a legal  posted fish to qualify for the contests.  Even if one of your teammates has posted a bigger fish you should post at least one legal fish.  It does not need to be an upgrade.  This will get you in the contests or drawings.  It only takes one fish to be eligible.  Good luck and be safe.

You got one thing right, That this contest is far from over !!!

As I live two hour out of the city and the Ice is not safe to walk on, Thick is good but no snow and water on top dose not make it safe. But then That dose not stop me,  :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

But that dose not stop ICE WALKERS,, More photos and a higher sore ICE WALKERS will be going!!!  :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

      The "Ice Toad Pluckers" have a minimum goal of being in third by the end of the weekend.  Top panny toad is getting plucked first. :taz: :taz:

    These conditions are perfect for me.  I ice fish commando with no shelter most of the time.  You guys that have to stay warm and cozy are going to drop down the leader board.  If we can get a 12+ panny tomorrow,  we move on to the eye.  Enjoy your time at the top wildlife.  It will be short lived.  The ICE TOAD PLUCKERS are coming to a town near you!! :dancinred: :dancinred:

  Lucky for you guys mother nature is not on Team Ice Toad Pluckers side.  The wind today will delay our take over of the first place spot.  Lack of ice has made it impossible to get to where I want to go.  Don't get to cozy.  We have lots of time left.  I believe we should still get to the third place spot by the end of the weekend.
