A friend of mine asked about NJ kids fishing derbies for 2014. I haven't fished a derby in 30 years! Does anyone have any information on local derbies?

Thanks Everyone!

They hire the Musky trout hatchery to load up the lake. They put fish up to 10 lbs in for this derby. It's NUTZ! I was there when upper was stocked, those were the good old dayz. I'm sure we've bumped into each other somewhere on the water.
