I hope you have made plans to participate in the annual Trout Derby on Burke and Quincy lakes, hosted by the Quincy Chamber of Commerce. This year’s even will be held on Friday, March 22nd and Saturday, March 23rd. Fishing was great since the opening day on March 1st. There are very good numbers of 12- to 13-inch trout being landed and an impressive number of carryovers. Registration forms are available at Hooked on Toys in Wenatchee, Sportsman’s Warehouse in East Wenatchee, Quincy Hardware and Lumber in Quincy and at the Quincy Chamber office. You can also register on line and learn all about the derby and the new photo contest by clicking on the Something Fishy in Quincy logo on the home page of my website. Fishing officially starts on Friday at 6 a.m. and there is a mandatory weigh in of fish caught on Friday at 4 p.m. All trout turned in on Friday will have a hole punched in the tail. The final weigh in will be at 1 p.m. on Saturday. In addition to the trout already planted in Burke and Quincy lakes, the Chamber will be adding more fish for the event, including some whoppers!
