Long Lake Ice Fishing Derby

Loading Events

Bundle up and head out onto the ice for a classic Adirondack winter tradition with the Long Lake & Lake Eaton Fishing Tournament. This family-friendly fishing tournament welcomes anglers of all ages and experience levels for a fun, full-day event spread across Long Lake and Lake Eaton.

Kids and adults alike are encouraged to take part, whether it’s landing a prize-worthy catch, learning the ropes from friends and neighbors, or simply enjoying a winter day outdoors. Registration begins early in the morning, with ongoing weigh-ins available throughout the day, keeping the event relaxed and accessible for participants who want to fish at their own pace.

The tournament wraps up with a final weigh-in mid-afternoon, followed by awards at the Long Lake Diner—where stories are swapped, smiles are shared, and winners are celebrated. With kids under 16 fishing free, this event is a great way for families to make memories, introduce young anglers to the sport, and enjoy the strong sense of community that makes winter in Long Lake special.

Everyone is welcome—whether you’re fishing, cheering someone on, or just soaking up the atmosphere on the ice.
