Craig Wilton of Mount Brydges has the largest fish, so far, at the 30th annual Canadian Tire Fish Kincardine Derby which opened Friday and runs to Sunday, May 24.

Wilton caught a 22.72-pound lake trout Sunday, to lead the trout division and the biggest fish in the derby.

The remaining top five in the trout category, are:
 

• Doug Goode of RR 1, Lyndhurst, with a 17.54-pound lake trout
• Curtis MacKay of Tiverton, with a 17.04-pound lake trout
• Guy Kaufman of Egmondville, with a 16.18-pound lake trout
• Tony Degasprais of Owen Sound, with a 15.86-pound lake trout

Leading in the salmon division, is Lorenzo Pellizzari of Guelph, with a 13.14-pound Chinook.

Behind him, are:

• Larry Milligan of Hanover, with a 12.26-pound Chinook
• Daniel Ruetz, with a 12.14-pound Chinook
• Kyle Ferguson of Mount Forest, with an 11.58-pound Chinook
• Stephen James, with an 11.5-pound Chinook

The grand prize winner receives a $5,000 shopping spree at Canadian Tire in Kincardine.

The angler with the top salmon and the top trout each receive a $1,000 shopping spree at Lake Huron Rod and Gun.

Last year, David Bedford of Stratford reeled in the biggest fish, a 19.48-pound trout. The top trout was a 17.66-pounder, caught by Paul Bester of Kincardine; and the top salmon was a 16.26-pounder, caught by Bill Molnar of Kincardine.
