TROUT ELUSIVE AT 35TH ANNUAL DERBY
PHOTOS AND STORY BY MELODY
FALCONER -POUNDER
The 35th Annual Joe Brandon Memorial Rainbow
Trout Derby, organized by the Bayfield Lions' Club
was probably one of the oddest on record — the
fishermen came out with their usual enthusiasm
but the fish just weren't biting.

Week 44 Issue 225
The Blue Flag was flying briskly at Bayfield's Main Beach near mid-day on Sunday. Fishermen and women
braved the cold wind in anticipation of a bite during the 35th Annual Joe Brandon Memorial Rainbow Trout
Derby.
The river was high on Sunday near mid-day as participants in the Rainbow Trout Derby tried to land a fish in the
last moments of the competition.
Sheltered a bit from the wind and bundled up to combat the cold these two fishermen chose the start of the
Bayfield South Pier as their best location to catch a fish.
When the competition closed at noon on Sunday,
Oct. 20 there were 13 trout, one salmon and four
other varieties of fish listed on the board. In 2012,
over 70 fish were caught.
The weather played a role in deterring the fish
during the derby that began at 6 a.m. on Oct. 18
but both fishermen and women are a hearty breed
and that didn't stop them from wading in and
simply enjoying the weekend.
The top three prizes for the heaviest Rainbow
Trout went to: first, Daryl Howard, of London, 8.54
lbs., $800; second, Brad Bernard, of Varna 8.09
lbs., $400; and third, Greg Lambourne, of London
7.88 lbs., $300.
The biggest, and only, Salmon was caught by
Nathan Oldham, of Goderich. It weighed in at
13.80 lbs.
The awards for youth who catch the largest
Rainbow Trout, the Eric Earle Memorial and the
Bill Thorpe Memorial, were not given out this year.
All participants who got a fish on the board as well
as youth participants under 14 years of age were
invited to select a prize graciously donated by
local merchants.
One brave soul chose the end of the pier as his spot for
fishing in the derby. He fished and danced his way around
the incoming waves.
Over by the fish shanties a few people gathered to try

South Shore Marina was the location of choice for this
fisherman.
The one that got away - kind of - an eager fisherman ran
up the river with his catch, however, it arrived about four
minutes past noon, too late to make it on the board. Tim
Moon (left) weighed it in at 7.93 lbs. - good enough for
third place if it had taken the bait just a wee bit earlier.
But no matter the timing it is certain to make a great
meal!

Last week was not a typical week. My step -children, grandson and I, stole my husband away to a cottage in the woods
overlooking Georgian Bay. He had no idea he was going anywhere. It took a lot of preparation all on the sly. It was quite worth
it.
We were able to slow down, sit around the campfire, read under a cozy blanket out in the fresh air, indulge in meals around the
kitchen table and most importantly just enjoy each other's company. We had time to try and throw all the rocks tossed up on
the shore back into the bay. Our two year-old grandson never tired of this activity.
Melody Falconer -Pounder In case anyone ever complains about the Bayfield beach being rocky — they should visit the shores around Georgian Bay.
Every time we went for a walk on the shoreline, careful to place our feet in such a way as to not twist our ankles, I was
reminded of the chorus of the song by "The Arrogant Worms."
"'cause we've got
