Fishing season opened in southeast Saskatchewan on Saturday, and the Estevan Wildlife Federation kicked it off with its annual Walleye Classic on Boundary Dam.
A large contingent of teams entered this year's derby, which is a catch-and-release event. Teams could weigh up to six fish.
The tandem Scott Caouette and Devin Draper took top spot, as the combined weight of their fish was 15.36 pounds. Dave Clark and Jason Meyers finished in second with a cumulative weight of 14 pounds for their fish.
Nate Smart and Garrett Mehler had the largest fish at 5.44 pounds.
This week's edition of the Mercury will have more on this story.
