Derby Is Only One Week Away!!!
The Martha's Vineyard Striped Bass and Bluefish Derby is only a week away. The economy has not affected the derby sponsors because they have just as many prizes as ever and Eastern Boats has stepped up and went from donating a 19' center console to a 24' center console. The boats looks beautiful and will be a great prize for any shore angler.
Of course you can sign up anytime, but with some good tides early in the derby why wait? I believe this is going to shape up to be an excellent derby and I predict some very big fish this year. We've had a good season, but everything seems to be a bit late this year which will bode well for derby contestants. The shore category will host the coveted prizes this year and I predict more surf fishermen this year than previous derbies.
I will be available for trips during the derby, but I will be limited to nights and weekends because I will be back to school teaching. I will still be hitting the beach hard so give me a call or drop me an email if you'd like to book a trip and catch the derby winning fish. Good luck to all and have a great derby!
