Flaming Gorge held a new fishing derby called The Mac Attack Derby over the weekend. The local fisheries have been emphasizing the need to clear out the abundance of smaller fish to help the larger ones to thrive. The two man team derby was designed to aid that problem. Being 100% non-profit, all fees from anglers went towards the prizes. The top five teams (designated by numbers) was team 203 which caught 48 fish that weighed 109.1 pounds, team 204 also caught 48 fish but had a combined weight of 116 pounds. In third place was team 302 with only 36 fish but with a weight of 116.7 pounds. Team 202 took second with 44 fish at 124.65 pounds. The winner was team 110 with 47 fish hitting a combined weight of 131.33 pounds. The total amount for prizes has yet to be announced as they tally all the fees.
