Better hope for some good temps, Rick! Thanks for doing the legwork. I'm in if weather permits.

Has your buddy ice fished that pond before? I know there's a pond in that area that's often used for ice hockey (Spinn might know it). Not sure if it's Wallace, might be one of the Banjos. People might not look favorably on a pile of holes in their rink...

Kevin,
I think I know the one that you're talking about. Scott says that this is not the one (I think you can see it from Banjo Rd. or Ln. or whatever that street's name is).
Thanks,

Rick

What is SABBIT and how do I sign up? Icefishing? I've got a rod, but nothing else. What kind of gear should I bring?

Sabbit

AKA Second Annual Bomba Bros Ice Tourney (SABBIT) or Sixth I believe in this case.....

See also FABBIT, First, Fourth, Fifth Annual Bomba Bros Ice Tourney.... TABBIT was the Third.... That should give you enough to load up the search function.

This is the sixth. Thanks, Ross.

We usually have it in Central Mass and it's usually a big production.

I thought that I'd have a more low-key version seeing as my knee is on the mend.


I'll throw the rules up there with a map during the week.

yes. it's ice fishing.

And here I thought the reasoning was to relocate to an area where it wasn't circled on the local police calendar........yet.

Nonono,
No police, family friendly fun, this time.

I even bought it closer to the North Shore guys and am trying to pressure TTB to join us...

If anybody needs a ride from my neck of the woods, I'll also offer my designated driving services, to boot.

Depends on the dog...

There are some hotels/motels along Atlantic road in Glostah that may be affordable off season. Anything along rte 128 from peabody on up would be convenient. Don't know about pet friendly on any of these though.

So, Kershaw is going to drill some holes on Thursday to check the thickness of the ice on the pond. He's guessing that there was a good 8 inches before Saturday.

I'll post if there are issues Thursday PM.

Hopefully there's not a problem. If I need to cancel, I can't book out, as I'm tied up all of February closing on the house (2/25).

I'll keep everyone posted.

Thanks,
Rick

Cancelling SABBIT Due to Ice

Hi Guys,
Scott was at the pond today.

Ice looks BAD! He was afraid to walk on it.

I'm cancelling the event.

Like I said, hopefully people didn't get stuck with rooms.

I'm going to be pretty much unavailable for the rest of the year.

PM me with any concerns.

Thanks and Sorry,
Rick

I'm guessing things will be good the last weekend in January. I won't be around that weekend.
