2026 October 17th CCA Kids’ Fishing Derby

On-line registration is closed......if you are interested in joining us for the Derby you can register on Saturday morning

What better way to spend a fall morning than to participate in CCA Skidaway's Annual Kids Fishing Derby! This exciting event kicks off on Saturday, October 17th, with check-in starting at 8:30 AM. The fishing action will take place between 9:00 AM and 10:30 AM.

After the fishing, lots of prizes will be awarded at this free event in the various age groups. This is a wonderful way to get outdoors for some family fun!

We're thrilled to bring back our popular BLUEGILL BONANZA! This year, a number of tagged bluegill will be swimming around in the Kid's Lagoon. Young anglers who catch a tagged fish will receive a $50 Bass Pro gift card, courtesy of CCA Skidaway.

Children and grandchildren ages 3-15 of Landings residents along with their guests are invited to participate. The Kids Fishing Lagoon is located behind the fire house near the intersection of Westcross and Log Landing Roads in Oakridge. This is always an exciting event which promotes sportsmanship, conservation, and provides a terrific community experience.

We will be providing a complimentary CCA Youth Membership to each family that pre-registers. Young anglers will benefit from the fishing and conservation stories contained in the award-winning Rising Tide magazine that CCA publishes quarterly.

Participants should bring fishing gear and bait if they have it, as well as insect repellent, a drink, hat, sunscreen, folding chair, and shoes with good support. If you don't have your own gear, we have bait and a large number of CCA loaner poles available on a first come, first served basis. Members of the Coastal Conservation Association (CCA) Skidaway Chapter will be on hand to give assistance and instruction as needed.

This event is made possible by dedicated CCA Skidaway volunteers, along with donations from individuals and local business sponsors. For more information, feel free to contact Tom Rood at 912-667-4831 or Jeff Harper at 410-402-4003.

Please note:  Each child must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
