WALLEYE DERBY FOR THE BAY OF QUINTE

I’m hosting a fishing derby for walleye on February the 25th.- 2007. I’m going to do it a little different than the usual. Instead of the biggest that wins the prizes its going to be the smallest. The main reason for doing this is so that we are not killing those fish that are prime spawners. The rules are very simple. It’s a one fish measure in only per ticket. It will be calculated by inches and not weight. I will have final say of how they will be measured. ( from the tip of the head back to the end of the tail not pinched together.) Pre fishing will be on the previous day (the 24th) . The derby in will close at 7:00 pm on the 25th. All fish that are to be measured in must be no later than this. Start time is 6:30 am on the 25th. All those wishing to participate may buy tickets from now and up-to and including the day of the derby. The tickets at this time are available at my store only. First price is gas powered 10 inch ice auger donated by Skevy’s Outdoor Specialities. Second price is a Helly Hansen survival suit. There will be other prizes to announce. At this time I just wanted to get this out to you all so you can plan your day. More to follow.

Hey Ron great idea, Give thought to the under age group (childern) would be nice to see the young ones enjoying nature and having a chance at winning a prize.

I like this idea about the smallest fish, maybe even a hidden weight. Nothing over 5lbs then we'll see how selective the boys can be. The big fish are fun to catch and impressive to see but they need to be put back in the water....Gary

SKEVY:
Great idea,we are thinking about doing a cash Jigarama tournament as well.
I was wondering were is your store?
Maybe , we could help you sell your tickets ,from this side of the bay,and river ?
Was told your not near Napanee . We have many, many die hard fishing men and women that uses our store daily. But to drive to your store may be way out of there way.
Were is everyone allowed to fish?
