The Division of Wildlife Resources has announced the ice fishing tournaments on the calendar for 2025. Hosted by the Flaming Gorge Chamber of Commerce and sponsored by the DWR, the Wyoming Game and Fish Department and the U.S. Forest Service, the Burbot Bash will be held January 24 through the 26 at Flaming Gorge Reservoir. The Steinaker Youth Ice Fishing Derby is on the calendar for Saturday, January 18th. The annual Ice Addiction Tournament will take place at Steinaker Reservoir on January 25th. The Mac Attack Derby on Flaming Gorge will be held February 15th through the 17th. The DWR shares that anyone participating in an ice fishing tournament should be familiar with the ice safety recommendations on the Utah State Parks website and should take all the necessary safety precautions. Some of these events may be canceled or postponed if temperatures are too warm and cause unsafe ice conditions, so watch the event websites and your registration emails for updates.
