Fishing derby nets big trout

Thanks to all who turned out for our free annual Poulsbo Lions Club Hooked on Fish under 12 fishing derby at the pond by Poulsbo Middle School. Our high school Leos sold out of doughnuts and coffee a few times, and there were lots of successful fishermen!

 

Colby Wolfe is the big winner at the derby with this 21-inch beauty.

 

Hanging out at the bait table (and hopefully not eating much) are Lions Pat Osler, Dennis Deitch, Tom Settle and Herb Armstrong.

 

We had a great Leo turnout. Kingston High Leos are shown above. They sold doughnuts, coffee, water and more as a fund-raiser.
