Fishing Derby
« on: March 09, 2011, 02:47:10 PM »
Can someone please tell me when the annual fishing derby for kids is. I believe it's at Spring Lake. I have never gone but now my daughter is really into fishing I want to take her. I though I heard it was on April 9. Not too sure. Thanks in advance for any help.

I think it's the 9th. I know the lake Takanasee derby is on the 16th and the two are usually a week apart

Not to turn you away from spring lake or anything but if you've never been to that derby be aware at how crowded it gets. Get there early! Takanasee derby doesn't get as big of a crowd

We'll get there plenty early. But what is the other derby you speak of. It's not the competition we're looking for it's for her to see how many  other kids her age like fishing. She likes fishing alot but doesn't see to many kids her age fishing.

Both derbys are for kids only. From what I've seen, spring lake is more popular and and also on opening day. It's going to be crowded as it always is. I've heard of people camping overnight just to secure a spot in the am. Takanasee derby is a smaller derby in long branch. Both are great events geared towards allowing kids to have a good time. Go to both!!  My first child (a girl) is due may 21 so I'm already planning these events out lol. My work posts a flyer for the takanasee event each year. I'll post up the contact info in a few hours
