Myself and buddy are entered. It will be my first time fishing the gorge on soft water. I think we will try a hand a catching some smallies, but basically anything that bites []. I don't expect to win anything. Just hope for half decent weather, some more boat break in time. Who knows we might get lucky and hook a biggin. If not we'll hope for a winning raffle ticket. Good Luck

[] I was wanting to go to the derby with my brother captnflappinshad but i got a new job and i have to work 6 days a week now. he's a good brother, he's came home to see mom for mothers day and stopped by and picked up all my fishing tackle and poles so they don't get any dust on them. sure suprised me that a harley motor cycle could haul that much and go that fast. i started to chase him down when he was leaving the garage to retrieve my tackle but i have been eating to many doughnuts these days and i was to tired to chase him past the end of the driveway. i was really mad until i looked down and saw a gift bag at the end of the driveway with my name on it, i looked inside and there was a dozen crispy creme doughnuts. i forgot about the fishin tackle and started to enjoy a doughnut until i read the note in the bag. it said to enjoy the doughnuts and to get off of my fat butt and get to sportsmens warehouse and buy some more fishin tackle as the selection he got was'nt up to his standards. i don't know what more he wants as there was at least one of everything in each of the 8 bags of tackle. he looked like one of those people riding a 10 speed bike on a long trip with stuff hanging off every possible place. well good luck to all the derby anglers.

yea think we have actually met up at the same derby,about a 2-3 years ago,we was having a rough time getting the kokes to hit,and you gave me and my two other brothers,sling blades of the right color,at the villa bar.and we went out the next day and was having double hook ups.its amazing what the kokes do when you got the things they want.today we still use the same color sling blade it seems to be the one that works best for us.good luck jared and we will probably see you up there,any thing new comoing out this year from shasta? thanks and good luck kelly

My parents and I are fishing the derby this weekend. We are targeting koke's. We will be fishing out of a trophy with a tower. If you see us, say hi. We've never placed in this derby, just won raffle drawings. We've always enjoyed fishing in this derby and the buckboard derby. Travis

is there a website for this and the buckboard tourny? i may give it a shot next year. id like to read a little about it and learn the rules and what not. ive never fished a tournament before. is this for any species, all species, or what?

[GORGEATTIC]

i dont think they have a website for this spring villa derby,its pretty much first come first serve,up to there limit, and thats around 300 teams up to 3 a team, three guys or gals.its big fish for each species in the lake. and then big fish overall the species wins the most, besides lake trout and cat fish,these have their own category which pays good but not as much.as for the buckboard tourney i dont know, but would like to find out and when and how much?
