Hey legend, what's up? I entered last year for the first time in I don't know how long. I won the adult prize on day 6, new quantum rod and reel combo. The cost is $12 for adults, kids under 16 is $6, or a family pass for $25. I don't work with the event, just so happens I have the booklet sitting in front of me, my hometown. If you do enter, the best of luck to you. (The grand prize boat ain't to shabby either.)

We have fished this event in the past. It is a good time. Built around enjoyment and good old family fun.
The prize pirch are usually small, but some good size ones can be caught.

Enjoy
