Update: Event Still Happening As Scheduled, Despite Thawing Ice
(Update: February 1, 2024) With warmer than normal weather conditions and some thawing ice, there's lots of questions related to this weekend's Ice Fisheree!
The event is still going on as planned with all of the scheduled happenings at the Crooked Oar including Friday Fish Fry, meat raffle, basket raffle, gun raffle, breakfast, live music, door prizes, and more!
The fishing contest will still be held as well with an official weigh-in station, and prizes for the top fish. Obviously, the normal style of ice fishing will be impacted by the thawing ice this week. However, fish caught on open water (in the Prairie du Chien area) are just as valid for the fishing contest.
There's still a lot of fun to be had! Many people plan for this weekend as a way to spend time with family and friends. Other than less than ideal ice conditions, all of the regular parts of the annual Ice Fisheree will be happening like normal! Looking forward to seeing everyone this weekend!
