Bay Club Fishing Derby
The Bay Club Mattapoisett hosted their first ever Fishing Derby this past Sunday in the idyllic pond that overlooks the 8th, 9th, and 10th holes on the clubs 7,068 championship golf course. The pond, which covers 4.5 surface acres and averages 20 feet deep, is stocked with both brown and rainbow trout. Members began the event with a fly fishing demonstration, compliments of one of the club’s more avid fishermen (who also baited hooks for some slightly squeamish participants) then set out to catch some fish! The group ended the morning with a barbeque lunch on the patio at the Half Way Café, took in the views of the pond and had animated discussions of the “ones that got away”.
