2021 Boat Parade

The Tri-Lakes Association is going to conduct a youth fishing contest. The event is to be held at Round Lake Resort on the North end of Round Lake on June 28, 2025 (with a possible rain date on June 29). The contest will be free and is for children, grandchildren and relatives of Tri-Lakes Association Members. The contest is limited to children 15 years of age

or younger. Children 12 years of age or younger must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Fishing will begin

at 9 a.m. and conclude at 11 a.m. when weigh-in begins.


​A trophy will be rewarded for the most weight of all pan

fish caught by an individual angler from each age group.

The number of age groups will depend upon the number of participants. Each angler is allowed an aggregate total of 25 bluegills, sun fish or pumpkin seeds (no size limit), which will be weighed, which will be the only species qualified for prizes of that particular age group. One trophy will be awarded for the largest bass, and also one trophy for the largest pike caught by individuals consisting of the entire group. A fishing license is not required for ages 15 and under.  Anglers must provide their own bait and tackle.  Fishing is limited to Round Lake, Blue Lake and Lake Mecosta. You may fish from shore, dock or boat depending on your individual preference. Adults may assist the youth only by baiting the hook, casting it out and unhooking the fish. All fish entered must be caught and lifted out of the water with a rod in hand by the youth.
