Beneficiaries receiving funds from Battle on Bago embody the mission statement of the event “For Kids & Conservation” and serve as just the beginning of a long list of organizations and youth Battle on Bago will benefit in the future.”There are new rules for 2018, the biggest change being Walleye size limitations: Ice Fishing Permitted ONLY.
