2015 Pemberton Winterfest Kids Ice Fishing Derby. The Pemberton Fish Finder and Spud Valley Sporting Goods Ltd are proud to announce that we will be hosting the 2015 Pemberton Winterfest Kids Ice Fishing Derby. This will be a two day event starting on January 17th, 2015 from 10am – 3pm and January 18th, 2015 from 10am – 3pm. The derby will be held at One Mile lake in Pemberton, BC. Senior Citizens are welcome to participate. This is a free event. We encourage individuals to bring their own Ice fishing equipment, specifically Ice fishing rods and hooks. There will be Ice fishing rods and equipment available for purchase at Spud Valley Sporting Goods Ltd, 1380 Birch Street in Downtown Pemberton, BC. The Pemberton Fish Finder will have a few ice fishing rods available for the public to borrow. Keep in mind, the last ice fishing derby we hosted drew quite a crowd “250 Kids” and not everyone was able to get an ice fishing rod. Rod availability is on a first come, first serve basis and we will not hold rods for anyone. We are excited that Redl Sports distributing, Rapala of Canada and Spud Valley Sporting Goods Ltd. have donated prizes in excess of $500. Pemberton Winterfest will provide the trophies for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place for the event. There will be Ice fishing huts set up with heaters so you can warm up if needed. There will be plenty of other events on the ice that include; Ice skating, Curling and a Hockey Tournament. Bring your kids out and lets enjoy a fun day on the Ice.

Below are a few pictures from the last Ice fishing derby. A girl won the last derby with a beautiful 19″ Cutthroat Trout. Lots of Prizes to be won! Come out and get hooked on Ice Fishing.

I was born and raised in Pemberton, British Columbia. As a young boy, the small town of Pemberton didn't offer the youth many things other than great fishing. So every waking moment I would be seen fishing the local rivers and lakes on a daily basis. In 1976 My Father "Ivan Knowles" opened Spud Valley Sporting Goods Ltd, and how fitting he had his two boys running the shop who were both very avid in hunting, camping and most of all ... fishing. Everyday people from all over the World would come in and get the local scoop, buy their gear and be off to catch fish. Later on My local knowledge and ability to help people catch fish would come in handy. Soon I ventured away from the family business to work as a angling guide for 5 years. In those 5 years I stared in my own fishing show called ELITE FISHING which was seen by 100,000 people a week on Whistler Cable. I have made a name for myself as the man to see if you want to catch fish. Now back working at Spud Valley Sporting Goods Ltd, "The Family Business", I love working with my brother Sheridan and father Ivan. Also a proud member of the fisheries committee for Pemberton Wildlife Association - helping make local decisions on local fisheries. I have a passion for fishing and seeing other people catch fish and this shows with my New Business venture The Pemberton Fish Finder, Visit my website for the Best fishing Tours and Fishing Reports for Whistler, Squamish, Vancouver, Lillooet and Pemberton BC, Canada.
