The end is near for the Ucluelet Salmon Ladder Derby! This derby has been running since May 24th, with hundreds of participants from all over Canada and the United States, not to mention the sportsmen and women in Ucluelet!
You have until September 3rd to get your contending fish on the ladder. The top 5 fish of each month, along with the top 50 of the season, will participate in the BIG FISH OFF on September 11th and 12th for cash and prizes over $30, 000.
The derby has rewarded over $20, 000 so far in monthly prizes and will give away another $10, 500 for August on September 3rd. So far the biggest fish for August (and over all) is 49lbs-9oz caught by Roy Dawe. If no one beats him he'll win $7000.
