Scofield Ice Fishing Tournament

Don in ice tent


Cory and Don have made a tradition of going to the Scofield Ice fishing tournament, when they can. This year it was held on December 27. We went and stayed at the cabin Friday night and they got up bright and early to freeze their butts off. When they first got out there he told Cory, "I'm not going out there in -4 degrees farenheit." Don is a trooper. He caught a 16 inch fish. He was 5 inches and a pound away from the winner of the contest. Although they don't have a kid category. He was the only kid after all. You would think they would have a special prize for him.

He won an ice fishing bucket with a seat from the raffle and he was proud at least he got something out of his day. He just likes having a Dad and Don day.
