Two friends and I participated in the 48th annual La Conner Surf Smelt Derby. It was $2 to enter with a $100 prize for biggest smelt. We fished from 10:30 until the derby ended at 2:00. One friend caught two herring and I accidentally caught a starry flounder. It looked like there were only about half a dozen surf smelt caught, amoung many other forage fish (herring, sand lance). The two herring took 3rd and 4th place in the biggest herring category and the flounder took first prize in the biggest fish of any kind category.
The day was a two star fishing day, but a five star fun day! I highly recommend the La Conner Surf Smelt Derby. It's a great Washingtonian family event and almost 50 years strong!
