Increase in Burbot Bash Participants Meant Increase In Cash Prizes

According to Cindy Keller with Daggett County, the 2013 Burbot Bash went extremely well. There were 1172 participants and over $23,000 was awarded in cash prizes. 4287 total Burbot caught and 10 internal tags were turned in. Two of the external red tags were caught, and Sunday during the finale, the insurance company revealed the numbers. Keller said that, unfortunately, those two numbers were not the winning numbers. Originally, $5975 in total cash prizes was to be awarded, but with the increase in participants, Keller says there were able to increase all of the prizes plus add more places. Originally, $100 was to be given if any tagged fish were turned in, but that amount was increased to $300.
