We are sad to announce that the Kokanee Derby scheduled for July 11 at Green Peter has been cancelled.
The primary reason is the water level. We have been in contact with the Corps of Engineers and BLM and their forcasts for that time of the year is extremely low water level and only one ramp (Thistle Creek will most likely be available. Trying to get our boats in and out along with the other boaters, and finding parking would be a real circus. Add that to the small fish size and we decided to cancel.
We discussed moving the derby to Detroit but learned they are in the same situation and have been having meetings among the agencies about how Detroit will handle all the boaters with the strong possibility of only one ramp being available.
