    Memorial Day BFF "interest post"

    Hi all I would like to make a few points about the national lake trout derby. First many of you don't know it's run by finger lakes sportsorama witch is a non-profit organization that donates all profit from the derby back to nonprofit organizations around the lake. No one is putting money in their pockets. Only you the winners.
    As for only one weigh station in Geneva back from the start to the late 80s there was only one with over 2000 entrants.
    As for the 40 or 50 dollar entry. if my family of 4 go out for supper at a good steak restaurant we spend around 150.00 for about 1 or 2 hours of entertainment and a full belly. So I don't think 200.oo for 3 days of fishing is too bad plus you might win something.
    My father fished this derby from the start with me and the dog stuffed into the nose of A 16 ft. boat until he passed. I missed a few years with raisin 2 boys that love to fish.
    Please enter the derby and fish safely.
    Thank you Dennis Layton
    Former President of the national lake trout derby.

    Some necessary alterations to this years derby are as follows

    2. Prize money will be prorated with the number of registrants for the 2020 derby. Mail-in registration cut off extended to May 15th. Online registrations accepted until May 22nd at 5:00pm. Stivers Marine accepting walk in registrations until May 22nd 11:59pm.
    3. The award ceremony held on Monday at the completion of the derby is CANCELED and prizes will be mailed.
    4. We are not having the blind drawing at the weigh station. We encourage you to limit your trips to the weigh station by checking the online live standings regularly during the derby. Do not bring in a fish that you do not believe will place. We will only be paying out 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes.
    5. Fish with those family and friends that you have been staying home with. Do not congregate.
    6. The $4,000 cash prize raffle will be postponed until 2021. All tickets sold will be put in the 2021 drawing.
     
    Weigh in station protocol:
    - When you arrive to Stivers Marine, whether by boat or car, please blow your horn or call the marine (315) 789 5520 to let us know of your arrival. Only one boat/car at a time at the weigh tent.
    -Remain 6ft apart while at the weigh station.
    -Return to boat/car immediately after fish are entered.

    Otter boat problem solved.

    in Open Lake Discussion

    Posted · Edited by gasman2438



    Anyone that has run otter boats has had problems with them catching every weed and stick in the lake.
    I found a fix I took. 043" stainless leader wire (#19) ran from noise to bottom front of the keel with ss screws. On the nose I used a ss screw with a little 5 minute epoxy in the foam.
    It keeps 95 % of the weeds and sticks off. Have fun.
