ALAMEDA - A catch-and-release jack-fishing tournament with a prize for the longest fish is coming up.

The 26th annual Alameda Fish Derby, sponsored by the Souris-Moose Creek Wildlife Federation, is to take place on Grant Devine Lake on June 24.

And there is still time to enter, says Skylar Antoniuk with the derby.

The event starts at 8 a.m. and will go until 4 p.m., followed by a roast beef supper served at the Alameda Rink at 5:30 p.m. The prize and cash presentations will follow.

Prizes are awarded to both adults and kids. The event will also see a loonie auction.

Also, there will be an online auction that will run on the Alameda Recreation Board Group on Facebook. Funds raised through the event are to support the local rink operations.

Entry fees are $75 for adults and $35 for youth and can still be purchased by visiting Alameda Agencies, the Prairie Pride Credit Union’s Alameda branch, Krazy Kanuck, Oxbow Agencies or call/text 306-485-8676 to purchase via e-transfer.

"We look forward to seeing you out on the lake. Not a fisherman, but want to join us for the roast beef supper? Tickets can be purchased for $20 by texting or calling 306-485-8676," said Antoniuk.
