Well,
It might be a little early, but I thought I would announce the Fourth Annual Bomba Bros Ice Tourney, brought to you by S-B.com.
Date - Saturday, January 26, 2013
Site - East Brimfield Resevoir - South Side
Time - 7:00 Am to 1:00 Pm
Entry - $20 or Custom Wood Plug
Last year's event was a challenge due to conditions, with about 30 participants. It was at Comet Pond, the only ice in this part of the state at the time. Good food, good times, and awesome prizes! As usual, Shawn Owen walked away with the grand prize. Cheap lodging is close, about a mile from the lake. The Bombas will be there the night before, so we'll have festivites at the Pic if they don't remember 86ing Messy Matty two years ago, on Friday and Saturday nights.
We'll be on the South Side of rt 20 this year (for those who have been asking for pike all of these years, and we'll be trying for access of Streeter Road).
Please RSVP to this thread if you plan to attend. It's a great time, and a fun way to hang out with the S-B.com crowd before the fishing show scene starts.
There's cheap lodging at the Motel 6 for $47.99 a night:

Local bait shops are sketchy, so best to pack in your own bait.
Please let me know if anybody has parked off Streeter Rd in the winter or if I should be looking for a different access point.
