May 2025 Fishing Derby Photos and Recap

Norco second fishing derby of the year was challenged again by mother nature giving us rain (in April, it was snow).

However, if you are a sportsman/woman, you prepare for the worst and enjoy the day regardless of sun, rain, snow, mud

8 youth and 3 adults fished for the derby

All the rainbows caught were 10″ to 14″ and brookies 8″-9″

Prize winners had choices of rod/reel, tackle box, and ice fishing tippets

Every youth had a trip to the lure table

Fishing is now open everyday dawn to dusk, 3 fish creel, good luck.

Black flies are out now in May and we’ll move into June mosquito season – bring some bug spray or a face net

Photos are below (thanyou Tina for snapping them all day)
