South Sound Chapter Salmon Derbies
In the past since the year 2000, the South Sound Chapter of Puget Sound Anglers has promoted a salmon derby on Hood Canal near Hoodsport WA. The year 2012 the location will be changed to South Puget Sound. The hopes are that this will provide a broader fishing area base, & at the same time allow local business in the Olympia area to participate in helping provide donations that are a major portion of the prizes awarded.
This is our main fundraiser from which we make donations to worthy fish related organizations & projects.
At the Sept. 24/25, 2011 Everett Coho Derby, a 16 ½ pound Coho claimed the honors of winning the two day tournament out of around 700 Coho salmon.
Also at this yearly event, the winner of the grand prize NW Salmon Derby Series boat, motor and trailer package was drawn. The winner is Randy Aden, from Hoodsport who participated in the South Sound PSA Hoodsport Salmon Derby in August.
Tony Floor, from NWMTA sponsor of the boat, spoke to Randy the day after the drawing, an employee of Weyerhaeuser at the Port of Olympia and he was very excited to win the grand prize boat package as he has been boatless, until receiving this call.
