2014 Erie Open - Blow Off Date

We are watching the wind forecasts closely for this weekend and the final call if Saturday will be blown off will be made before Friday at noon.

The back up launch to Crystal Beach will be Millers Creek Marina in the Upper Niagara should the winds be questionable for Launching at Crystal Beach. If the lake is still fishable we would leave it open even if launching in the Upper.

If the blow off date will be used we will be calling all teams that pre-registered to confirm.

Announcement will be posted on BFB, Facebook and niagarafishing websites.

Also please be aware that the upper Niagara river at the peace bridge will be closed Saturday morning for removal of power lines crossing to the USA. Scheduled to begin at 7am.

Any questions please call 905-401-3609
