Ice Fishing Contest

Big Eagle Lake Improvement Association Ice Fishing Contest...

February 2nd 2008

The 12th annual Big Eagle Lake Improvement Association Ice Fishing Contest

The 12th annual Big Eagle Lake Improvement Association Ice Fishing Contest is here again. (BELIAIFC for short).  

This year along with having lots of fantastic prizes, we also have entertainment.  Music, games for the kids, lots of drawings and just a lot of fun for everyone.  The action starts at high noon February 2nd and goes until the wee hours of 3:00pm.  There will be standard fish prizes for the biggest, the littlest, the first and so on but also every 20 minutes or so drawings will be held to give even more prizes away. We expect the crowd this year to actually get tired of being given things there are so many.  Prizes.  Let’s mention a few, - Strikemaster Ice Auger, Gopher Basketball tickets, Aqua Vu underwater camera, a Wii and a 32” LCD HDTV.

And food;  there is the Hard Water Café featuring pizza, Big Eagle Meet Goulash, the best chili north of Texas, coffee and hot chocolate.   Chef Joanne has put her best apron on for this year’s event. 

Contest rules are available here Contest Rules or get a copy at the boat landing the day of the event.  Tickets are available at many of Big Lake’s finest merchants, such as Klein Bank, Hardware Hank and Coborn’s.  Board members also have tickets and if all else fails, ask around, someone will know who has them.  Speaking of raffle tickets, you had better get yours right away because these are the hottest raffle tickets we have ever offered.  The $2.00 combo raffle ticket for the 32” LCD TV and Wii is hotter than a Mexican pepper.  Board members are selling the raffle tickets and the tickets are also available at Victory.  That is not to say that the other prizes lack appeal.  Here’s one:  a giant bird house donated by KWPH Construction that is so ornate and big that it can be used as a college rental unit.  Nothing cheesy about this year’s bounty as our local merchants have stepped up to the generosity plate again providing all of us with lots of treasures to pick from.
