The 34th Annual Marina Del Rey Halibut Derby will be the most exciting halibut derby in history.?? This year's derby is pulling out all the stops.?? One skilled or lucky angler could walk away with 3 gigantic prizes as well as a load of cash.
Imagine, this could be YOU:
1.???????? Win the 1st Place Prize for the biggest halibut??? A fishing trip for two at Beautiful Hotel Punta Colorada, in the amazing East Cape of Baja California,
2.???????? Plus, win the Bonus Prize, if your winning halibut is 40 pounds or more ??? A fishing trip for two at the luxurious Sitka Point Lodge in pristine Alaska,
3.???????? Plus, if your winning halibut is over 50 pounds, win the Super Grand Prize, and drive away with a new Toyota Tundra Truck, from Marina Del Rey Toyota.
You could win all three!!!!!!!!?? Several 40 pound halibut have been caught recently and we know there are 50 pounders roaming the Bay challenging you to catch them.?? Even a 12 year old on one of the MDRA Youth Fishing Trips caught a 44 pound halibut not long ago.?? You can do it too!!!
??
Second through Fifth prizes are also great fishing trips to various famous Mexican Fishing Resorts including The Inn at Mazatlan, El Cid in Mazatlan and Las Flores Resort.
??
Kayakers Take Note
Kayakers are invited back again this year to compete head-to-head for all of these regular prizes, and they will also have their own Kayak Division competing for best yakker bragging rights, special kayak trophies and a special Kayak only jackpot.?? A kayaker could actually win all of the big 3 prizes above, plus 2 big jack pots, plus the 1st Place Trophies and a place in the spot lights.
Incredible!!!!!
