Hello everyone!
We are excited to share some new changes to the Port Whitby Derby.
On top of the current season winner division we currently have (the Scotty downrigger prize), awarded to the highest total combined weight of the largest Salmon from each of the 3 events (3 Salmon total); we have added 2 new categories, brought back one category from a few years ago and added a junior anglers division for the first event!
Mystery Salmon weight:
One randomly selected weight will be selected by the executive. The weight will be between 15 and 22lbs. The Salmon closest to (above or below) will be awarded the prize. The weight will be different for each event.
Junior Angler Day:
A new division for the largest Salmon caught by a junior angler for the first event. This fish does not need to win a regular category prize to qualify. No additional entry fee! Only requirement is that the team notify the executive before the start of fishing.
Largest Salmon of the season:
Single largest Salmon caught during any of the 3 series. Payment will be made at the last event. If the winner is not at the final event, alternative arrangements will be made.
Big Box Bonus:
The highest total combined weight of 3 Salmon from all 3 events (9 Salmon total) wins this division. Requires participation in all 3 events.
We also increased regular division payouts by 20% for all 3 events.
