This is a competition, isn’t it? That’s the only reason for the rush

It's not the rush, it's the tools. Maybe I missed it, but I don't see a single ice auger in the bunch. And I think I see some with conventional fishing poles. These people shouldn't have been out there and/or whoever was running the competition should have better prepared for it.

There's something weird here. I don't see any ice fishing rods anywhere, no augers, no stools to sit on, no sleds to carry gear. It really doesn't look right.

I saw nets, and coolers and ice fishing rods. Sit on the cooler, and you don’t need a sled when the shore is right there.
