Fishing Derby is always fun

 It was a beautiful day Saturday for the city’s 23rd Annual Fishing Derby, but turnout was surprisingly low.

Those who weren’t there out, though, because the pond at Lake Rita Blanca was stirring with freshly stocked rainbow trout and kids couldn’t seem to reel them in fast enough. The first fish was caught within 10 minutes of the opening horn by 11-year-old Kase Kitchens. And after that, folks, fish just kept coming in!
