■ Kids get hooked — Want to get your kid hooked to fishing?
Bring him (or her) by the Port Angeles Kids Fishing Derby on Saturday and let them catch their first trout.
As long as it’s not as small as the one I first hooked — a three-inch delight that resulted in a screaming tantrum when I was told to throw it back — things should go well.
■ Fly show — Any Peninsula fly fan worth his or her salt should reserve some time for the Olympic Peninsula Fly Fishing show this weekend in Sequim.

Doors open at 11 a.m. on Saturday and 10 a.m. on Sunday.
The event will feature presentations by area experts and Pacific Northwest guides, door prizes, vendors and a casting contest.

■ PA blackmouth — This could be your last chance to score a saltwater salmon for a long time (unless, that is, you fish Hood Canal).
It’s been a terrific season so far.
Little reason to think that will not continue to the very end.
■ Hurricane hunt — The Winter Sports Club plans to celebrate its extra time with a special Easter egg hunt Sunday atop the Ridge.
There will be a hunt for children 10 years old and younger, as well as one for the open class that includes such goodies as an unlimited season pass to Hurricane Ridge Ski Area.
The hunts, open to all who purchase a lift ticket, start at 10 a.m. Prizes will be awarded at 1 p.m.
■ Gravity games — Some of the best in North American downhill mountain biking will race for Northwest Cup glory at Dry Hill today through Sunday.
The pro finals, set for Sunday afternoon, are a must see for anyone who appreciates extreme sports at its finest.
