2010 Ice Fishing Derby

Nipmuc Rod and Gun Club had 59 brave sportspersons participate at our Annual Ice Fishing Derby in spite of the frigid weather. Twenty of which were members and thirty-nine non-members.

The morning started off with a hearty breakfast prepared by volunteers: Bruce Tiedemann, Ed Bergmann and Matt Ronzio. Jon Tiedemann tended the fire in the fireplace all morning long for those who needed a break from the cold.

If there was any one example of what a positive attitude can do for a person Mike Ozella would get my vote. Mike has placed 1st place in his age bracket for years. During last year’s derby awards, I distinctly remember him saying that he was looking forward to this year’s derby for he would be competing as an adult. Today, Mike Ozella took 1st place. Kudo's Mike!

Just to inform members there are two Tagged Fish Pools. You must be signed up before the tag fish are caught. There is a signup sheet at the clubhouse.

NRG thanks those who donated their trout for the upcoming Game Feed, The Game Feed will be taking place February 20 at 2:00 PM, tickets are $20.00 and can be purchased at the clubhouse beginning February 1.

PeeWee - 1st place - Anthony Crisafulli / 2nd place - Ryan Dupell

Junior - 1st place Kevin Daniels

Adults - 1st place- Mike Ozella / 2nd place-George Parry / 3rd-Kyle Sullivan
