Most folks don't know what a fishing DERBY is.

Just a thought but if it was advertised as a fishing CONTEST.Everyone would understand what was going on.Could draw a little more attention..

Hope this stirs up some interest.

I had a picture of " Make Fishing great again " hats in the above post.

But for some reason they did not show up.

Thanks for the update Jason. Sure sounds very encouraging. One of the things I would suggest is to NOT rely ONLY mainly on Facebook for disseminating info and updates but to develop a good interactive web site for the derby. Many of the fishermen I know that take part in the derby strongly dislike all the social media crap which I know is very popular especially among younger folks, but having a strong base website is more functional from the standpoint of appealing to a wider range of people who do not wish to establish a Facebook account or interact in any way with it. If it could be a secure site allowing registration and credit card  interaction I think it could significantly expand the entrant base.
