Blue River Trout Derby - President's Day Weekend

Event Details

Each year, the Blue River Association sponsors two trout derbies. Anglers from across the country attend these derbies to fish and compete for cash prizes, awards, and trophies. The first derby is held in November on Veteran's Day Weekend, with the second derby in February on President's Day Weekend, the third Monday.

The trout derby will be located at the Blue River Public Fishing and Hunting Area, about 11 miles northeast of Tishomingo. This clear, spring-fed river will be stocked to the brim with trout for the derby. Trout fishermen will be awarded prizes for the largest trout, biggest stringer and heaviest stinger. Attendance for spectators is free; however, there is a small entry fee for derby participants. All age groups are welcome to participate. Come join anglers from across the country as they compete for cash prizes, awards and trophies!
