You really don't want to miss Thursday morning's Loveland Fishing Club annual club derby. In addition to traditional prizes for first and second place, new member Al Roraker has donated terrific additional prizes for First, Second and Third!
Fishing runs from 9 a.m. to noon at Flatiron Reservoir. Note the club has arranged for members to fish the lake without the usual daily entry fee. So here's the deal:
The winner's name will be permanently added to the club's traveling trophy, which she or he can keep until next year's derby. She or he also earns bragging rights and $50; the runner up gets 25 bucks and the chance to help the winner cook the derby banquet after the 2026 Derby.
In addition, Al has donated the following terrific prizes:
- 1st Place - Two KastKing Fishing rods! One is a 6’6” MH casting rod and the other is a 7’ MH spinning rod.
- 2nd Place - KastKing Royal Legend GT casting reel, 7.2:1 gear ratio, 5+1 bb, 17.6 lbs drag
- 3rd place - KastKing Sunglasses, hat and wool fingerless gloves.
So show up ready to fish. Here are the rules:
- One pole at a time
- No wading or boating (not allowed on Flatiron anyway)
- One hook or lure or fly
- The winner will have the biggest stringer of trout, up to the legal limit of four. You can keep what you catch or catch and release.
- All kept or released fish meant to enter the derby must be officially measured and witnessed by another club member - who needs to legibly write the length of each fish on a card along with their initials. This is why you should bring along a tape measure. Also, Note the time of your first catch: it may be needed in the unlikely event of a tie.
