Fishing Derby and Contest info - OldTimer - 04-09-2012 03:03 PM Hey, This week I learnt of a fishing derby that’s been going on for the last 72 years VERY close to my home. I would have gone had I known………… Apparently it’s the oldest Sucker Derby in North America. [attachment=57] Makes me wonder: what other fishing events & derby are going down, that are not well advertised, or not widely published – yet might be fun for some of us to participate in. Perhaps the forum calendar could be used to show such events – or perhaps a thread, or better yet a simple chronological yearly list ?............... Regards, OldTimer RE: Fishing Derby and Contest info - bettercallsaul - 04-09-2012 04:21 PM Sucker's suckin on a sucker is pretty clever. I don't really know of any in here in Toronto, except I think there is one in grenadier pond for the kids? I also get emails from New World Carp about derbies at the reservoir beside wild water kingdom. RE: Fishing Derby and Contest info - MichaelAngelo - 04-09-2012 09:51 PM I have a to-do list for this forum, a lot of things that OldTimer suggested in the other thread are on there. I've looked over the Calendar page. Anybody should be able to add/edit public events or even private events between members. Please feel free to add whatever you see fit (openers, etc.). This is a feature that I haven't mentioned before or advertised. A side-bar with upcoming calendar events and recent replies is also on the to-do. As is a page where you can see the new replies to your posts. Sit tight while I finish my exams *fingers crossed*.
