Mercury Marine Salmon Derby Challenge
Mercury Marine is the exclusive engine sponsor of the 2014 Northwest Salmon Derby Series. As such, it has initiated the “Mercury Marine Salmon Derby Challenge!” At each of the 15 tournaments, Mercury will award the following prizes to the Top 3 finishers in each derby if their boat is equipped primarily by Mercury outboard engines (2009 or newer):

  • $3,000 for first place
  • $2,000 for second place
  • $1,000 for third place

How to win the Grand Prize
In order to win the 2014 grand prize boat, anglers can fill out a Northwest Salmon Derby Series raffle ticket at any of the 15 derbies (prior to Sept. 22). Every angler’s name, address, telephone number and e-mail will be entered, free, into the drawing during the derbies. One ticket will be issued per angler per derby. For example, if an angler entered all 15 derbies, their name would be entered 15 times, whether they caught a fish or not during any derby. Remember, in order to win the boat, purchase of a derby ticket from the host derby is not required. One entry per person, per derby.
Any anglers participating in derbies after Sept. 21 will be entered to win the grand prize for the 2015 Series.
