A whopper of a fish tops the scales during Kid's Fishing Derby
Submitted by paula on Sun, 09/13/2015 - 7:00pm
"I'm usually a bass fisherman," explained 11-year-old Casey Holden. "I only fish for trout during this derby."
The sixth grader from Fairfield-Suisun Valley Elementary had the catch of the day on Sunday during the 14th annual Moose Lodge Fishing Derby held at Lake Baron inside Tahoe Paradise Park. The first fish he reeled in was 3 lbs 7 oz after about 90 minutes of fishing. As soon as he got that one off the hook he cast another line and within a minute caught the one that ended up being the biggest of the day, a 7 lb 5 oz rainbow trout.
