Wow.... Seems like an easy win considering no one has broken 20 LBS yet.
And the prizes are amazing. Sadly it's 3.5 hours away from me so I wont be going .

My friend and his grandfather have been fishing in the spring salmon derby in Owen Sound for years. Georgian Bay salmons (Chinook, Coho, Pinks and Atlantics) are much smaller than Lake Ontario salmon in size...even if they are the same species. It's not even easy to break 15lbs in some years. It will not be an easy win if you think you can just go and break 20lbs.
