King Salmon derbies have been associated with the MatSu Valley for many years. The MatSu King Salmon Derby is being hosted by the Public Safety Employees Association.

There are many ways to win in our derby.  Every King Salmon weighed in will be entered to win cash and prizes and even if you never catch a fish your ticket is still put into a raffle for cash and prizes.  The derby isn’t just for the biggest fish.  Remember to weigh in every King Salmon you catch, regardless of size or weight.

If you are a family you only need to purchase one ticket for your household.  Individuals on the Family Ticket will have their fish entered in as individuals as well as a unique Family class.  The combined weight of the fish entered on your Family ticket will compete with other Family ticket holders for special cash and prizes.
