    Some necessary alterations to this years derby are as follows
    1. The only location that will be open for weigh station will be Stivers Seneca Marine in Waterloo NY.

    4. We are not having the blind drawing at the weigh station. We encourage you to limit your trips to the weigh station by checking the online live standings regularly during the derby. Do not bring in a fish that you do not believe will place. We will only be paying out 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes.
    5. Fish with those family and friends that you have been staying home with. Do not congregate.
    6. The $4,000 cash prize raffle will be postponed until 2021. All tickets sold will be put in the 2021 drawing.
     
    Weigh in station protocol:
    - When you arrive to Stivers Marine, whether by boat or car, please blow your horn or call the marine (315) 789 5520 to let us know of your arrival. Only one boat/car at a time at the weigh tent.
    -Remain 6ft apart while at the weigh station.
    -Return to boat/car immediately after fish are entered.
     
    We appreciate everyone's understanding of the changes to this years derby. Good luck, and stay safe.
