A cool, overcast morning made for pristine fishing conditions Saturday at the Iola Police Department?s annual Hooked On Fishing, Not On Drugs (HOFNOD) fishing derby at Craig and Georgia Abbott?s pond in north Iola.
Henry Kramer was one of 69 youngsters to cast their lines in hopes of landing a fish.
Wendell Tyler brings in his catch to be weighed.
Iola officer Tom Roush was among the volunteers who helped oversee the derby, which concluded with prizes and free lunch for the participants.
