Lake Arrowhead 2019 Junior Trout Rodeo

LAKE ARROWHEAD, CALIF.

3rd Annual Lake Arrowhead 2019 Junior Trout Derby was held Saturday April 14th 2019 by the Arrowhead Lake Association (ALA) at the Tavern Bay Beach Club. The event is on it's third year and has been gaining popularity each year. The event is open to ALA members 15 years or younger only, and is free to those members. Fish can be weighed, cleaned and cooked on site as well as a photo area for lasting memories of your catch.This year we had the opportunity to speak with Brian Hall who is a long time member of (ALA) Fishing Committee Chair. Brian mentioned that the event is here for those young folks to have the opportunity to catch fish and have a great time doing it! This year Tavern Bay was stocked with 4000 pounds (2000 fish) of rainbow trout and golden trout from Mt Lassen Trout Hatchery in Northern California. The idea for the event is to simplify the fishing process for ALA members, by containing all of the trout in one designated area of Tavern Bay to make the catch process much simpler. Anglers have the option to catch and release or take home. All in all the kids and parents alike had a great time at this event..
