Here are the rest of the derby results, derby is 25.00 and this fall over 200 people got in to brave the elements mostly hardcore night fisherman.

My boat has seen plenty of 11's and tons of 9's and 10's. Had one I derby checked at 11.7 but fell just shy of the board so it's not on there I didn't bother filling out a ticket since I wasn't in the money.

My boat did have the 1st place fish for almost half the derby till the big fish starting going about 9 days ago, same as every year, the week of thanksgiving it's ON!

If anyone ever wants to make the trip for big fish thanksgiving week is without a doubt the week to come. Sandy wreaked havoc on the bite and really put a damper on the fishing and screwed up the fall and the entire migration, the fish sort of skipped huron/vermillion and headed right for the islands which isn't typical.
