There looks like there will be some major rule changes in 2009. Kiwanis Lake Newell Ice Fishing in 2009 will only be conducted in predesignated locations. See Image Below.

This, I asume is to keep the fish mortality rates high. There were new rules introduced a few years back and derby organizers have been trying to stay out of hot water and still provice these great events for all of us.

I know I personally never fish in the areas circled, but for the sake of the tournament I will. I hope the rest of you will follow the rules as well. That way truly great events like the Kiwanis Lake Newell Ice Fishing Derby can continue for a long time to come.
