Fisher River Valley Ice Fishing Derby
by Maggie Craig
February 22, 2021
Fisher River Valley Fire and Rescue held its annual ice fishing derby over the weekend, February 20-21, on the lower Thompson Chain of Lakes. Good weather and good ice made perfect conditions for a weekend of ice fishing. By noon Saturday around 400 people had registered for the event, and overall over 500 participated in the derby.
The $20 entry fee included prize money paid for the winning pike, salmon, rainbow and perch as well as a portion paid to Fish, Wildlife and Parks and the Fire/Rescue Auxiliary as a fundraiser.
It was an impressive turnout and a successful weekend for the fire department and all the volunteers who made it happen.
