2025 FLCA Kids Fishing Derby

Saturday June 28, 2025 from 8:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

The Derby starts at 8 am and closes at 12:30 pm, followed by a BBQ at 2 pm that afternoon. The format is “Catch and Release” (see Guidelines) .  Photos of fish caught will be used  to award prizes, which means that participants must submit photos of their catch to the FLCA immediately to the FLCA general email at inquiries@farlainlake.ca to allow judging to take place in time for the prizes to be awarded at the BBQ!

Please see the Kids Annual Fishing Derby Information here and review the Catch and Release Guidelines.

Everyone is invited to a BBQ starting at 2:00 p.m. where the winners of the Photo Contest and the Fishing Derby prizes will be announced.  The BBQ will be held at 151 Farlain Lake Rd. West, hosted by Scott and Kelly Dales with our thanks.

Our sincere thanks to our Derby sponsors for the awesome prizes!

Memories of the 2024 FLCA Canada Day Kids Fishing Derby

Hopkins team measuring their catch!

Despite Mother Nature, the kids were out fishing on the lake, on docks and from the boat launch Sunday morning! Despite the cool spring-like weather complete with rain, our fisher kids were out at 8 am on Sunday morning July 29, and a few managed to catch some fish. But from all reports, even those that didn’t had a lot of fun!

Our sincere thanks for all those who participated not only in the fishing but later on for the BBQ! Cool but no rain by the afternoon and our thanks again to the Dales for hosting, to all the “helpers” for another successful event, the sponsors for the wonderful prizes and the food, and to Heather Kertzer and Paul Breslin for the Photo Contest! It truly “takes a village”!

Check out the photos of the prize winners below.  Congratulations to the winners and our sincere thanks to all those who participated! A special shout out to Scott and Kelly Dales for all their hard work in planning and in hosting the BBQ, and to all our generous sponsors!
