Great day for a Perch Derby
CHENANGO LAKE – Saturday at Chenango Lake saw one of the best weather days this area has seen in weeks, and the sunshine also brought out hundreds of anglers for the Oxford Lions Club’s Annual Perch Derby. Al Taylor, of Greene, hauled in the largest perch of the day, a 13-incher, while many other anglers vied for the largest one caught during the special 15-minute awards. Although no perch sporting this year’s $1,000 tag was caught, one that was tagged in 2005 was taken, netting the angler a special $50 award. The average size of the four-an-hour winning perch was 11.2 inches.
Since no qualifying tagged perch was caught, the prize money was awarded via a special raffle held at the conclusion of the derby. The winners were: $500 – Christopher Coyle, $250 – Morgan Steward, $100 – Bernard Smithka, $75 – Matt Dickinson, $50 – Jerry Frankoviak, and $25 – Chris Skiba.
The regular raffle winners were: Shappell/Rover 1.5DX – Tim Carr, Sled & Gear donated by Mayhoods - Tim Evans, $100 donated by NBT – Jay Gregory, $100 donated by Lee, Emerson & Ferrarese – Dennis Franklin, $100 donated by Sidney Federal Credit Union – Ed Poole, and $100 Gas Card donated by BlueOx Corp – Linda Bartle.
