The Quinte Walleye Weekend is happening THIS weekend, and if you’ve been thinking about getting in on the action, this is your sign to do it.
Running May 2–3 on the Bay of Quinte, this live-release walleye derby is one of the biggest fishing events in the region, and the prize lineup this year is seriously impressive.
We’re talking:
- 💰 $1,000 for the largest walleye each hour
- 🎣 A Fenwick Eagle rod for second-largest walleye each hour
- 🐟 Largest pike of the weekend prizes: $1,000 (1st), $500 (2nd), $250 (3rd)
- 🧒 Hourly youth prizes featuring $100 Rapala prize packs
- 🚤 AND the grand prize… a 14’ Crestliner boat with a 25HP Mercury outboard and trailer for the largest walleye of the weekend
It’s not just about the competition either, this weekend is all about community, time on the water, and making some unforgettable memories out on the Bay.
We also had organizer Ben Harvey on the show this morning, and he gave us the inside scoop on what to expect this year. He even invited Sean out fishing… which could be the real entertainment of the weekend, considering Sean absolutely refuses to touch worms. Someone please document that moment.
Whether you’re a seasoned angler or just love the energy of a great local event, Quinte Walleye Weekend is where you’ll want to be this weekend. 🎣
