Orillia's Annual Perch Fish Festival - Lake Simcoe & Lake Couchiching

Fishin' Fun for Everyone...Grab your Family, Friends & Fishing Gear

Join in the 29th Annual Orillia Perch Festival!

Toss your Line into the Beautiful Waters of Lake Simcoe & Lake Couchiching
for a chance to Win Great Prizes...if your Catch is the Lucky One!


The Orillia Perch Festival is one Canada's largest fishing derbies and it takes place right here in cottage country from Saturday, April 17th right thru until Saturday, May 8th 2010.

Pick your favorite fishin' hole and catch tagged Perch for awesome cash prizes or win daily, weekly or even the grand prize draw... you'll be grinnin' and braggin' with even more fish stories! ;)

Register once, but fish often for more chances to win! This fishing derby is registered as 'catch & release' so be sure to have a live well at the ready for storing your fish. Your Perch must be living, breathing and healthy enough that once weighed in, can also be released knowing it will survive.
