Trap Champion

On Sunday, April 19, in blustery wind conditions that caused the targets to soar upwards like frisbees, Bob De Lisle of Edgartown picked up his third club trap championship since 2005 at the Martha’s Vineyard Rod and Gun Club’s trap facilities.

Participants took aim at two rounds of 25 targets. Mr. De Lisle broke the greatest number of clay targets to capture the title. John Montes of Edgartown took second place honors after a great second-round challenge at the leader and edging out third place winner Matt Tobin of Chilmark.

A reminder to young fishing enthusiasts: do not forget Saturday, May 19. This will be our 35th annual trout tournament, held at Duarte’s Pond off Lambert’s Cove Road from 5 a.m. to 10 a.m. rain or shine. As always, refreshments will be available. Come early and find your favorite spot.
