Fishing Derby
August
Fishing is one of the most popular ways people connect with their waterways! Be it fly fishing for trout in the cold headwaters, jigging for crappie and walleye in the reservoirs, or just catching whatever bites with the kids, Jacobs Creek Watershed offers a host of angling opportunity for all skill levels.
Our annual Fishing Derby provides an opportunity to build community and encourage interest in angling in a fun, competitive atmosphere. Hosted on our largest reservoir Greenlick Run Lake, participants young and old can fish for species like Largemouth Bass, Bluegill, Black Crappie, Yellow Perch, Walleye, Channel Catfish, Common Carp, and even Northern Pike!
