The National Walleye Tour has begun listing dates for their upcoming derbies in 2021 and Dunkirk Mayor Wilfred Rosas is looking to possibly one of the spots coming up.
“I think we have talked to those folks, but we haven’t solidified anything as of yet, but the city is definitely looking to help with promoting these fishing derbies, we budgeted some funds in the budget this year,” Rosas said. “We are more than willing to work with them and we will probably reach out to them to let them know that the city would like to work with them to hopefully bring that here.”
