About Lantana Fishing Derby

This is one of Lantana’s biggest events benefiting a number of local charities and organizations. A signature event during Derby Weekend is the annual Kids’ Derby. Fishing rods and tackle boxes are donated to 50 underprivileged children. They are also taught to bait the hook and cast. The children then participate in a fishing contest at the New Lantana Bridge Pier. The kids are treated to lunch and the winning angler receives a new bicycle.
