* $1750.00 of total were paid to 3 lucky "Longest Fish" winners. $1000 went for a 20 7/8" trout; and two people with a 20" trout tied for second place and split the rest.

A unique and true fish story resulted when someone brought in a 13 1/2 lb. bass. When he was reminded that it was a trout derby, he said "look inside." And there in the mouth was a "piece of meat" portion of a trout with the tag on it. Value was $20.

Technically, the derby isn't over till May 19th and certain tags still have value until then. Check your derby rules for details.
