An 11-year-old Eagle Lake boy who is no stranger to the Long Lake Ice Fishing Derby winner’s circle picked up his sixth trophy this weekend. Drew Belanger of Eagle Lake hauled in a first-place togue in the 13-and-under youth category of the annual fishing competition and fundraiser. The 26-inch fish weighed 6 pounds, 3.5 ounces, besting the nearest competition by about 2 pounds.
