Tyhee Lake Provincial Park saw a crowd gather on Sunday for the third annual Telkwa Father’s Day Fishing Derby.
About 450 people attended the event with fishing demos, a BBQ, prizes, a fry release, and more.
“We had so much fun. The weather was gorgeous with close to 50 fish caught this year,” said Event Organizer Michelle Finch.
The largest fish caught this year was a 26-inch rainbow trout, beating last year’s record-setting 23-inch catch.
A burbot category was also run with no entries submitted.
Finch plans to continue growing the event for next year.
