  17. I have fished nearly all of these derbies with the exception of 3 years I spent overseas in the military in the sixties and all three of my kids have fished in them with my son still fishing it with me. We often camped at Sampson State Park as well during many of them. I look forward to it every year and prepare for it during the off days from ice fishing all winter. Although never actually winning it we have placed in the money many times and my dad was actually leading it one year while being treated for cancer and he died that Fall and I have never seen him so excited as when he caught that fish which ended up second in the Seniors division. What I'm getting at is that this event is a family and friends event which is a whole lot of fun whether you win it or not. It can be a tough lake to fish for folks unfamiliar with it, but out of staters have won it too over the years. To anyone who has not fished it but is thinking about it I'd say "go for it" especially considering the recent situation affecting all of us but do so with proper caution and have a great but safe time.
