Fish ‘king’ crowned
White Lake, NY – It was a great day for fishing – temperatures
in the 20s, bright sun, blue skies. Over four
hundred eager anglers braved the cold temperatures
on Sunday, Feb. 21, to spread out over the ice covering
White and Kauneonga lakes for a chance to win the Sullivan
County Conservation Club’s annual “King of the
Ice” competition.
In an ironic twist, the contest was over in less than
half-an-hour when Hayden Carnell hooked an 8.2 lb.,
26.5-inch walleye at the start of the event. Throughout
the remainder of the day, no other fisherman caught a
fish of greater size, and it was Carnell who was eventually
crowned as 2021’s “King.”
COURT ACTION
BALL IN PLAY
While Section IX
regulations did not allow
spectators to attend
LMCS basketball games
in person, hoops events
were live-streamed so
fans and families could
watch them at home.
Because there were no
playoffs, LMCS’s last boys
and girls games ended
on Feb. 27. Seen here in a
match-up with Roscoe’s
