Details:

The Derby is catch and release and open to all ages.  We are looking for the longest Rainbow Trout in Okanagan Lake. We are encouraging catch and release practices and will be declaring the winner(s) based on length of the fish only.  The prize will be awarded to the entrant who catches the longest Rainbow Trout.  (Note: This year we have custom wrist bracelets that will be given out at registration. They are under lock and key so nobody knows what they look like. Every fish caught needs to have this "unique" bracelet in the picture to qualify)

Prizes will be handed out at Rose's Pub Saturday, Oct 17 at 5:30 pm.

Feel free to launch your boat anywhere you like and you are permitted to fish the entire Okanagan Lake.

There are great prizes up for grabs:

• 1st Place - $2,000 for the longest Rainbow caught.
• 2nd Place - $1000
• 3rd Place - $500
