2024 JRFD Fishing Derby – Fish Caught (Drawing)

Below is the list of the prize-winning fish prizes at the 2024 Jamestown Rural Fire Department Fishing Derby. Note due to the ice conditions we were not able to hold the actual fishing portion this year. All prizes were drawn via raffle tickets once ticket sales are closed or sold out. The three prizes for each species are drawn, with those tickets being returned after. So all raffle ticket purchasers are applicable to win one prize per species, with the tickets being placed back in for the raffle drawing.
