It is Walleye World weekend again, with thousands of anglers getting ready for the annual pike and pickerel tournament on the Bay of Quinte. Spokesperson Stephanie Wilson at the Quinte West Chamber of Commerce says 46-hundred people are expected to compete for 250-thousand dollars worth of cash and prizes in the derby, sponsored by the Trenton Kiwanis Club.
Participants can drop their lines anywhere at one minute after midnight tonight, and the results will be posted on a website throughout the weekend. Prizes will be awarded late Sunday afternoon.
I will have too miss out on this opener this year first time in 20 years forced too sell my boat and no fishing lisence the economys hit me bad good luck to all who can afford what use to be something that ment thw world top me
I’ll be fishing but refuse to spend $30 on a derby ticket. It’s turned into a cash grab from the Kiwanis, yes it’s a good cause. Scrap the pathetic ugly hats. Get rid of the tagged fish prizes.
Make it a reasonable $20 and you may see more entrants. I hope sales of the tickets are way down this year and that they’ll rethink the prices of the tickets.
FISH ON!
