I received this email today from organizers of the Derby:

We had 131 children from ages 6 to 15 participate. Many were first time participants. It is a wonderful memory you helped create for these children and get them excited about sportfishing. I heard one boy say all I want to do fish for the rest of my life!

Great job getting kids OUTSIDE instead of in front of the iPads.

Thanks.

We need the kids to start realizing the fun of fishing.

Hopefully some will try to protect it for their kids.
