The Moosehead Lake Togue Derby, hosted with NASCAR legend Ricky Craven, is an annual ice-fishing event that brings together anglers of all ages for a weekend of fun and friendly competition. Participants try to catch togue (lake trout) on the frozen lake, competing for prizes and supporting fisheries conservation efforts. The derby provides a unique opportunity to embrace winter on the lake, connect with other fishing enthusiasts, and support NREC’s mission to sustain healthy fish populations in the Moosehead Lake region.
