| 2009 Master Angler Picture Recognition |
| Delaney Lake Lodge has established a program to recognize those guests who demonstrate expertise in fishing by catching and releasing what we consider a “trophy” fish in a particular category. The categories that we chose to recognize are Walleye, Northern Pike, Smallmouth Bass, Lake Trout, and Muskie. Any angler who catches a “trophy” fish will have their picture displayed on this web page for the entire 2008 fishing season. The length in each category is as follows: Walleye meets or exceeds 28” in length, Northern Pike meets or exceeds 40” in length, Smallmouth Bass meets or exceeds 18” in length, Lake Trout meets or exceeds 28” in length, Muskie meets or exceeds 40” in length. The picture will be displayed with the angler’s name, length of the fish, and home town. |
