"2007 - 4 fish
2006- 13 fish
2005-
2004-  10"

does anybody know the number of anglers that entered in the derby during these years? It would be very interesting to compare number of anglers to fish caught.

Thank you,

Most years there are between 300-400 anglers out on the water. This year was much smaller than normal  ;)
