The Lumby & District Wildlife Association is pleased to share the success of this year’s Annual Mabel Lake Fishing Derby, held this past weekend under clear skies and warm, sunny conditions.
The event welcomed a fantastic turnout, bringing together anglers, families, and community members for a weekend that highlighted not only great fishing, but also the strong spirit of the region. From early morning casts to the final weigh-ins, the derby was filled with enthusiasm, connection, and appreciation for the outdoors.
This event would not have been possible without the dedication and hard work of our volunteers. Their time, organization, and commitment behind the scenes ensured a smooth and enjoyable experience for all participants. The Club extends its sincere gratitude to each individual who contributed their efforts.
