Not to sound stupid,.... but do you kill every single pikeminnow you catch?
Ive never tried fishing for them before lol.

[Britguy]

I can be there when ever you guys need me (dusk till dawn)
sorry don't have a boat just a tube
I will bring the tube so i can cast a fly or two and keep an eye on the fish
I have a loud voice so they will hear me if they try anything
Will there be any signs to put up saying "please keep out"
Will i be able to park close by so i can keep an eye on my gear on Friday
I am trying to get the Saturday off too so if you need me then i will help

They do. You should come to the derby as we have many great prizes including 100 fly and spinning rod combo's. Most of the fly rods have fly line on the reels that retail for $50.00. I am sure we have a prize for everyone that enters and stays for the awards and draws that follow the derby.

I'm very interested in taking my daughter to the Pike minnow derby at Cultas lake. Never really fished for pike minnows. What's the best way to catch them and where would you fish for them? Any tips would be appreciated.

Here's a video of last year's Cultus Lake Pikeminnow Derby:

Sounds good.... too bad the adult catergory doesnt get the U-boat    O well I hope I can come, if I can convince someone to give me a ride up lol. Can you catch these fish on a fly rod? I think I may have caught them before just spin-casting a worm with a weight and reeling in steady, are they known to take spoons as well? I've never targetted them before so I dont really know too much, yes I watched the video too    1 other question....  If I have a boat and can get my step-dad to come or some 1 else, would it be an ok idea to troll around a worm (or some other bait) close to the bottom? I would also like to know whether or not these fish prefer the deep water or do they mostly sit around the dock areas....

Thanks,
Dan

If you can watch Shaw channel 4 you can see 'The Master' giving out some tips. Dock areas are good as they fed on food dropped in, some say. Bits of hot dogs work. Some fish a worm under a float. Others cast out with a small weight with a worm and bring in slowly. To tell you the truth I have fished the derby a few times and never did very well while others are experts at it.

I have to go up early to work at the derby, let me know if you need a ride.

truer words have never been spoken, just ask Stef!!
at least the weather looks a little more promising than last year!

I never said I was a guide and I think maybe she caught more from the dock than in Leaf Craft #2, Maybe I will bring Leaf Craft #3 this year.

[troutbreath]

I'm thinking of going again this year. I recommend worm on the bottom by a creekmouth for a prize pikey or two. It's not the prizes I'm after just the status of winning the derby.

Hey Chris I got your pm, but your email adress is hidden to me, maybe you could e-mail it to me later. I dont mind waking up early, and it is quite possible I might need a ride, I will let you know by either tomorrow or Friday. Thanks for the offer, hopefully everything goes well.

Thanks, Dan
