Congratulations goes out to Sturgeon Bay’s Lorrie Combs-Schmidt for her first place catch — a 33.97-pound Chinook — in the 2024 Kewaunee/Door County Salmon Tournament. Lorrie’s trophy was the 10th heaviest in the K/D’s 42-season history.
With record participation of 3,891 men, women and youth anglers, this year's payout surpassed $100,000 in cash and prizes! In addition to the bonus prizes and K/D cash listed here, there were 50 daily port prize packages and eight early-bird cash awards.
Fourteen Chinooks larger than 30 pounds were brought in, and the top 100 were all 25.85 pounds and up. A total of 164 25-pound-plus salmon were weighed, along with 300+ between 20 and 25 pounds.

As we close the books on the 2024 contest in the coming weeks, the K/D committee would like to give a special shout-out to one of its founders, outgoing president Jerry MacMillin. This will be Jerry’s last year writing checks, as he’s retiring from the tournament after 42 years. Anglers who won cash or prizes of $600 or more will need to return a 1099 form (will be mailed) before he can send a check. 

Thank you to all who participated in any way; whether fishing, cheering on your favorite angler, or just following along on Facebook. We appreciate you!
