Everything is set for another phenomenal fishing season in Wayne County. The only ingredient for a great time is some young anglers. Now is the time to register for the annual Grandslam Youth Derby because this year the derby will begin on April 1. Last year we had 89 youngsters registered for the contest.
 
Here’s how the derby works. The Merchants Challenge Division requires anglers to catch the five species of warm water fish; pike, perch, walleye, largemouth, and smallmouth bass. After qualifying they can add to their total weight by registering larger species. The GrandSlam Division species are; chinook, coho, steelhead, brown, and lake trout. The Species Challenge allows anglers to enter any one of the ten species. No qualifying is necessary in the Species Division.
