ice fishing extravaganza

The Brainerd Jaycee's Ice Fishing Extravaganza will cause some traffic headaches on Highway 371 north of Brainerd tomorrow (Saturday).

This drone footage from FishCrack.com was captured at last Saturday's Ice Fishing Extravaganza put on by the Brainerd Jaycees on Gull Lake. Steven Darrell from Owatonna rolled in the biggest fish of the day with a 6.73 pound Northern Pike. Great event, very cool video.

As many as 12,000 anglers will wet a line on Gull Lake's Hole in the Day Bay Saturday for a chance at winning a new pickup truck, four-wheeler or ice castle fish house.

The ice is thick enough for the 23rd annual Brainerd Jaycees $150,000 Ice Fishing Extravaganza. The Crow Wing County sheriff's office issued organizers an event permit Thursday.

About 8,000 people participated in the Brainerd Jaycees Ice Fishing Extravaganza on Gull Lake on Saturday.

It's a "go" for one of Minnesota's largest ice fishing tournaments. Officials for the Brainerd Jaycees' $150,000 Ice Fishing Extravaganza have been issued a permit for the Feb. 11 event.

The Brainerd Jaycees have announced that the "Ice Fishing Extravaganza" on Gull Lake scheduled for next Saturday, January 21st has been postponed until February 11th.

Gov. Mark Dayton will participate in a Brainerd ice-fishing event for charity this weekend. He'll be the first governor to attend the Brainerd Jaycees $150,000 Ice Fishing Extravaganza on Gull Lake on Saturday.
