Monster Trout Derby
Sponsored by merchants of the Lackawaxen River Watershed

LACKAWAXEN RIVER, PA — The merchants of the Lackawaxen River Watershed have announced the return of the Monster Trout Derby, just in time for the opening day of trout season on Saturday, April 4. 
The merchants in the watershed sponsored 100 brown, brook and rainbow trout that will be stocked in the Lackawaxen River between Hawley and the village of Lackawaxen. 

These trout are between five and 10 pounds and are tagged with a number that corresponds with the sponsoring business.
The contest is open to all anglers who have a valid PA fishing license. 

There is no entry fee—just catch one of these trophy trout and bring the fish or tag (for catch and release) to one of the weigh-in stations, which are located at Two River Anglers or the Wallenpaupack Sports Shop. 

Then you’ll collect a weigh-in certificate and call the sponsor that corresponds to the fish to claim an additional prize.
All fish come from the Blooming Grove Club hatcheries and were raised in the Lackawaxen River headwaters. 
The contest runs from the opening day of the PA trout season to the last day of the fall season.

Two River Anglers is located at 106 Scenic Dr. in Lackawaxen, and the Wallenpaupack Sports Shop is located at 30 Welwood Ave. in Hawley.
