It's usually a fantastic, absolutely beautiful day on Saturday and everyone catches lots of fish.
Be sure to bring your camera as we get some great pictures and stories.
This year the derby has a five fish limit. 25 tagged fish will be worth $100 each.
One of those tagged fish will be worth $5,000!!!
In two of the last five derbys I have seen the Grand Prize fish caught. I haven't caught a tagged fish yet, but we do limit out every time. They are usually small stockies, but some larger fish are in there. And, the chance to win Five Grand AND Fish is fantastic !
A number from one of the eligible tagged fish will be drawn after the derby and that lucky number will be the winner of the $5,000 Grand Prize.
The Rotary Club also decided last year to add two separate cash prizes and award them to two of the contestants of the derby just for showing up and entering.
After to the drawing for the Grand Prize, a drawing will be held for an extra bonus prize.
Catch And Release Is Allowed!
However, only live, healthy, uninjured
Trout may be returned to the water.
Well buddy, that's just too much to resist!
Our transportation will leave Las Vegas at approximately 4am on Saturday morning.
We will arrive at the derby at about 8am and fish the whole day or until all limits are caught.
Then after the derby & prize drawings we'll continue back down the mountain to the hotel in Ely for dinner, drinks, and a whole lot of rest.
Sunday morning we'll meet at a designated time for a hearty breakfast and decide
which will be the best place to get back out on the ice.
Do we go fish for the big trout in Illipah Reservoir, or head down to
Sunnyside for some super Rainbow and Largemouth Bass action?.
2009 Derby
2008 Derby
2010 Ice Fishing Derby
We are making plans to go to the derby again.
We will only be taking 8 anglers for a two day trip to the Ely Rotary Club Ice Fishing Derby at Cave Lake this year.
Hope you can join us again this year!
Basically, the key word here is warmth.
You should bring blankets and chairs, your own gear (though tackle is provided).
Be sure to dress warm and in layers... we do not know how cold it will be.
From my experience in past years, it is usually
VERY cold in the morning and warm in the afternoon!
Ski Pants or bibs, wool socks and hat, warm WATERPROOF boots, longjohns,
and gloves are recommended.
