Rock Bass Derby
suspended
This fun derby has been suspended by the organizer for three
reasons:
-
the number of rock bass have been significantly reduced
-
lack of organizational help (contact webmaster if you want to help)
-
lack of participation (only two families at the last derby in 2012)
Cottagers are asked to continue to rid the lake of these fish so Stormy
Lake continues to have an enjoyable sport fishing environment.
When you catch red eyed fish please do not release it live back to the
lake.
In other words, kill them, kill them all.
