Welcome!

On May 17th, 18th, and 19th, 2013 the Winni Derby will be
hosting NH's leading annual Landlocked Salmon and Lake Trout derby with over $50,000 in Daily and Major Prizes! As always, the fishing is on Lake Winnipesaukee in central New Hampshire.

As a non-profit organization, the Winni Derby looks to maintain our support the local community, and as always, is committed to the preservation of the salmon fishery on the “big” lake.

With the 30th Annual Derby concluded - we enjoyed an even better turnout, summer like weather (not the greatest for fishing), and many happy prize winners! With over 175 fish registered, the quality and size were a marked improvement over 2009.

As in the past, we continue to work in partnership with the NH Fish and Game Department, as they are directly responsible for the fishery we use. We are working to extend our support with a pledge to assist Fish and Game with the upgrade of better feed for the hatchery. Please consider a contribution to the Laconia Rotary/Winni Derby. Your donation to the pledge will be matched by our club, and all proceeds forwarded to NH Fish and Game.This will allow for a better quality of fish to be stocked in the lake each year. And we continue to help raise awareness about the Landlocked Salmon Angler’s Pledge initiative.

We appreciate your continued patronage as we work to continually expand this event. We look forward to seeing you in the Winner's Circle!

Good Luck Fishing Lake Winnipesaukee!!

Due to the rumors and information on some of the fishing blogs, there has been a raised awareness that the possibility of some of the past entries for Landlocked Salmon entered were not fished from Lake Winnipesaukee.

The Laconia Rotary Club Winni Derby Committee has decided to enforce rule #15 for the Grand Prize Salmon Division that provides for a polygraph test for the determined winner and his/her witness.

15.  Each participant and witness agrees to comply with the official rules and regulations of the Winni Derby and the laws of the State of NH.  All winners of any Grand or Major prize will be required to sign a sworn affidavit provided by the Derby. If requested, the participant and the witness agree to submit to a polygraph examination (lie detector) at a time and place determined by the Derby officials.  Refusal to submit to a polygraph examination by either the participant or the witness may result in entry disqualification.  Failure of either to pass the polygraph to the satisfaction of the Derby officials shall result in entry disqualification.

This examine will be completed by Crawford Polygraph Service, to be scheduled after the event at the convenience of all involved.
