Saratoga Lake Ice Fishing Derby

The annual Ice Fishing Derby attracts ice anglers from several states to Saratoga Lake hoping to make the catch of the day! Cash prizes will be awarded, including $2000 prize for the largest game fish caught during the derby and gift certificates for the largest fish caught each hour. There will be more than $6,000 in guaranteed cash prizes and up to $35,000 in additional prizes possible. “Trophy Trout” have been added–catch one and it may be worth $20,000 or $10,000 or $5,000!

The weekend, always the third in January, includes a special Small Fry Derby for children under age 14. For more detailed information, see our Fishing Derby page!
