Special Events

Spring Shakedown 12th annual – 2026

For the nights of Friday June 12th to Thursday June 18th rooms are half price for this bare bones, no frills, event (minimum 3 night stay for the special price). There will be gas, bait, ice and tackle, but no cafe or other services as we won’t have regular summer staff in place yet. You’ll see us family getting things ready for the season – keep busy fishing or we’ll ask you for a hand! Only available to guests who’ve stayed with us before.

Konrads win First and Second place in 2020!

Shawn won first place with his 24 pounder, and Jenna was a close second with her 23.5. This is the first time both first and second prizes were caught by a couple.

Carrie the 2019 J&J winner with Cameron

2019 – Carry Armstrong with Claus Sandhack on the Green Monster won with a 33 pounder, and Mia Kenny won second place with a 29 pounder.

2018 – Dale Graham and Wayne Wall, second prize and second prize Kathie Gabelein – I’m very late on the updates and I can’t quite remember the weights. I think they were 25 and 22 pounds.

2017 – Larry Rose with Anita was our winner for 2017, and second prize was Bill Sheldrake

2016 J&J was a tie between Brian Rose and Randy Wunderlick – 25.5 pounds.

2013 winner: Julie Kelly (yes, that’s Julie and Grant from Getdanet and Kelly Pilchard fame) with a 30 and a half pounder. Close second place was Mike McGlogan with a 30 and 3/8 pounder (just a 1/8th of a pound smaller). Mike was one of the crew on the Green Monster.

Here’s a picture of Grant and Julie with their winning fish on the scale. The Lorne Halcomb memorial trophy, which Julie is holding, is awarded to the angler who brings in the first Tyee of the season.

Picture of the crew of the Green Monster. One of these fish is almost 30 and a half pounds and took the 2013 second prize.

We had a Tie in 2012!

The winning fish kept getting beat by a pound or two every tide. Mike Sell (yup, the same Mike & Jan team that brought in a 34 pounder the day before the derby started) brought in a 29 pounder and then just moments before the end of the Derby Chris McManus brought in another 29 pounder, so they shared first and second prizes and each won $2,000. Bob Beard was the winning fisherman of Jack and Jill 2011, with the first Tyee of the season – a 31.5 pounder.  In second place with a 26.25 pounder was Caroline Shillito.
