Please join us on Saturday Oct 19th 2024 for our annual Fall Steelhead Derby at Denny’s Dam Park on the Saugeen River – ALL ARE WELCOME. The derby starts at 7am and ends at 4pm sharp. Please observe all Ontario Fishing Regulations.

The Spring and Fall derbies are social events for members, families and friends to enjoy the fishery and meet new and old friends.  This is a great opportunity to do some fishing, have a few laughs and join us for dinner (BBQ, a fish boil, salads and desserts) and prizes afterwards. Ontario Steelheaders merchandise such as hats, t-shirts, and jackets, will be available for purchase throughout the day.  Dinner will be served at the Rod Jones Pavilion, where the derby prizes and trophies will be awarded.  Followed by prize table draws, as well as a 50/50 draw.  Anyone wishing to donate prizes to the Derby please contact Chris Doherty at Denny’s Park, or at (519) 239-3790.  ALL PRIZE DONATIONS ARE WELCOME!  

The Entry fee is $10 and Chris Doherty (Tournament Director) will be at the park Friday morning for early registration. Juniors under 16 years old are free.  Everyone is welcome!  Overnight camping and day use at Denny’s Park is available for participants and their families. Membership applications are available at the Derby.

Cash prizes and trophies are awarded in three categories:  1. the largest rainbow trout (1st, 2nd and 3rd), 2. Largest live trout release upon authentication of length and girth measurements and 3. a junior category for largest rainbow trout.

Bring the kids, bring your friends! Join us for a fun day on the river.
