The Bremen Conservation Club’s 16th Annual Ice Fishing Derby scheduled for January 19th at Lake of the Woods, Bremen, Ind. has been postponed until Feb. 2 due to insufficient ice.

Registration begins at 5 a.m. at the Community Building and fishing will be from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. Entry fee is $10. The Club will again involve the Bremen Boys and Girls Club and will again share proceeds with them.

Cash prizes of $200 for first place to $25 for fifth place will be awarded for contestants who catch the “longest” total length of legal fish. Only fish over six inches will be measured. Youth prizes will range from an ice fishing shelter to a $25 gift card. A $25 bonus will be given for the single longest fish measured for the derby.

Fishermen, as well as non-fishermen, who wish to donate the $10 entry fee are eligible for a $250, $150, and $100 cash raffle and door prizes; and can buy a pancake and sausage, biscuit and gravy all-you-can-eat breakfast for $5. Breakfast is available from 5 a.m. until 9:30 a.m. Non-entrants price for breakfast is $6. Lunch will also be available and will be served to fishermen on the lake (again ice conditions permitting) and to the non-fishing public at the Community Building.

A separate raffle for a musky fishing trip will also be available.

The Derby could be further postponed to an even later date should weather and ice conditions dictate the need.

Come fish, have breakfast or lunch, win some cash and/or door prizes and support the local Conservation Club and the Bremen Boys and Girls Club. Everyone is welcome.
