Effective Front fender or mud guard for track frame?

My Bareknuckle has no fender mounts and tight clearance between the front wheel and fork crown and down tube. But I want to ride it this winter. Anybody know of an effective front fender or guard for track bikes that will stop my feet and drivetrain from getting trashed? Seems like foot protection is lacking on the options I have seen online.

thanks for the advice!

Tight wheel clearances don't work great in the winter even if fenders aren't in the picture. I'd ride a different bike.
