31st Annual MDR Halibut Derby

The Weekend started off with the best weather seen for a Halibut Derby in years.  Blue ski and flat water.  But the fishing was harder than in most years.  Those who succeeded were rewarded with quality fish.

Over 800 Halibut Derby participants share in the bounty of approximately $65,000 worth of prizes and raffle giveaways. 

There were many volunteers that gave selflessly to the club and to the cause.  All the work is for charity. This event is the main fundraiser for the Youth Fishing Program that take many underprivileged kids out  on the ocean.  And we support conservation with funds and action.  See the information on the White Seabass rearing pens where the MDRA fishing club raises fish.
