ATON’s Kids Fishing Derby a Success! Saturday, June 4th was the morning for the Rogue Bass Youth Derby co-sponsored by the Somerset County Park Commission. This is the eighth year ATON has participated in this fun day at Metlers Pond in Colonial Park. The day started with a representative of the NJ Fish hatchery giving everyone a lesson in the fish that were to be stocked into the lake and answered the numerous questions from the children. The 10:00 AM horn blew and the fishing started. Fish were hitting immediately and about 150 eager young participants had their reels screaming and rods bent. Too many fish to count were landed; with the bulk being catfish, bluegills, and bass. ATON wishes to thank the NJ Rogue Bass Masters, Dina Trunzo of the Parks Commission, and all participants.
