It's time for the annual Reedville Fishing Derby. The derby is held at Buzzard Point Marina in Reedville, VA.
This year, the tournament will be offering anglers an opportunity to win prizes of over $25,000 for 3 species of fish, Striped Bass, Bluefish, and Croaker. The Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula are well known fishing areas with numerous creeks, rivers, and quick Bay access.
The all volunteer organization of Smith Point Sea Rescue organizes the derby as a fund raiser. The Smith Point Sea Rescue organization has been serving boaters in distress in the mid-Chesapeake Bay area from the lower Potomac River to the Rappahannock River for 30 years.
The Captain's Registration is Thursday, June 9 from 11am to 8pm at Buzzard Point Marina. The tournament fishing begins on Fri., June 10. Friday night activities include a Country Western DJ from 8pm to 11pm. Saturday night's entertainment will be a live band, Casper from 8pm to 12MN. Of course, merchandise vendors, food, and beverages will be available. The fishing awards are generally given out on Saturday night. For more information on Smith Point Sea Rescue, the Fishing Derby, and weekend events; check out The Sea Rescue's website.
Even if you don't fish in the Derby, there is a good time to be had by all. It's always fun to see who wins the prize for the largest fish.
