LIVONIA – Ted’s Tackle’s annual Frostbite Ice Fishing Derby pulled in much more than fish.
According to Ted’s Tackle, located in Lakeville, the February derby’s 525 anglers landed $8,340, which will be split in half and donated to two worthy causes: the Honor Flight of Rochester and the Myers Memorial Foundation.
“It was a nice little take for a small tournament,” said Ted Decker of Ted’s Tackle. “I couldn’t believe how well we did.”
Honor Flight told Ted’s that the donation would allow them the honor of getting nine veterans and their families to Washington DC, and the Myers Foundation said that the donation would go to support two local families immediately and others in the future.
Ted’s posted a ‘thank you’ to Facebook for the derby’s participants, sponsors and supporters:
