I'm going to the Snapper Derby tomorrow for all ages up to 16yrs
old...takes place from 8am-4pm. You just have to pay for parking...
$6. They rent fishing poles and tackle for the event. And they are
giving away prizes...the weather is going to be beautiful. I'll let
you know how we make out. Here's a link:

Weather turned out to be cool and cloudy. Fishing wasn't that great.
Kids who were in the Derby were scattered throughout the pier, so it
didn't really feel like a contest. It felt like any other day fishing
on the pier...needs to be organized a little better. Maybe rope off a
section just for the contest to keep the kids engaged and give them a
sense of competition.
