20# mono, a sinker, a coke bottle, a hook and a bunker head. In the right spot you might win:)

Dennis, that would be great. Las Vegas all last week working a trade show. Home 36 hours and off to another trade show right now. No way to get any place to register.

If the guys at the Edge want to set something up to do that fine,otherwise it's sign up at the shops. I will bring tickets to Flos's Fri night if anyone wants to sign up there at 5. You just better not have a 30 pounder in the trunk!

am :fury: :fury: :fury: effin' fuming right NOW!!

the wiff just informed me last night that she'll be needing
MY vehicle, her POS SAAB is kaput, until 8pm or so on FRI!!!

she's known about this tourney and its importance to me for 3 yrs~~~ and for at least a MONTH this year!!!

i still get to fish the tournament, just won't be able to make the FLO's Thang :wall: :wall: :wall:

am hoping to register on-line with the Edge, good luck to everyone,
and i'll sea ya'll at the Booberry Factory on SUN, if not sooner!

Jess,
See if Josh or Luds or anyone else is comin down and hitch a ride with them.
The Prime Rib dinner at Flo's is one not to be missed at any cost.....

It's worth trying to miss the Prime Rib if you're planning on fishing that night. Mix that thing with a couple of those clam thingies and some buds and I'm ready for bed. Sorry to say that I won't be making it down for Flo's this year and I know Josh is out that night.

Ill be making it to coddington but not making it to flo's and might only get to fish one night. Got some freinds from florida coming in for ocktoberfest.

i hear ya Mike,

yet, i should be allright with the tides~~~

just one of those marriage SNAFU's that my bride is capable of. i'll settle for giving it my best shot for the remaining time that i am ABLE to be there. also, as luds elaborated on, i think that last year i was pretty wrecked and fished very weakly. ended up going in the drink on Sat night, and spent ALL of Sunday in gear recovery mode.

thanks to the DeCostas and the Grace of God,
things worked out,,,,,,,,,,,am hoping to actually FEESH this year

and make it to the Raffle/Fundraiser on Sunday.
thanks anywho luds and Josh. these things have a weigh of
working themselves out,,,,,,,,,,,or, at least i hope so~ cheers mates!!
:grins: :grins: :grins:

We'll be extending our normal banker's hours this weekend to enable tired fisherman to weigh their fish in a little earlier this weekend.

We'll be opening early Saturday, with hours running from 7am to 5pm and on Sunday we'll be open from 7am to 9am, and 11am to 4pm.

Just weighed in a 34lb for Dave Daluz

Frank Goncalves 30 Lb

Down to the wire ... the race for third place!

Any Luck?

Great time, Liam (obviously) had a blast ;)

Props to Joe, John, Jess, Jeff, and all the crew for pitching in.

Redlite pulled another squeaker !

I'd like to thank the Habereks for their work on this. John Jr did a great job on the posters and the trophies.Jess and Michelle and Wayne for thier work with the tickets and donations of so many gift certificates and the hassle of getting it all together for the Hospital. As always my brother Jeff was there to mount the trophies and whatever else I asked him to do. Thanks to Ma for watching over all of Henry Donnely's tickets and helping out over in the ticket corner. Thanks to all the sponsors of the tournament for all of the raffle items and to the shops that weighed in the fish. Most of all thanks to ALL OF YOU who participated in this event :bgi:.Without you ,I would have just been a strange man in a bar with a microphone that people wondered about.:devil2: ...Like THAT never happened before!:rotf2: It is a good thing we do here, and I know John is smiling up there thinking.."THAT'S NIIIICE!"

Can we see the results? I didn't even wake up till 3:30pm yesterday :mad:

Mike Veracka won by a scale with a 35.9 oz striper edging out John Hanecak who had a 35.8 oz fish. Dave Daluz took 3rd with a nice 34 lb fish. Very close this year and some nice fish weighed in! There were also a few 30 lb fish and some in the 20's. Looks like there's a lil' fall run goin on!

Thanks Joe! What a close race. Redlite wins another! :cheers:

All he's gotta do is win a lifetime supply of circle hooks and he'll never have to buy another piece of fishing tackle again

Hi all,

The contest was awesome, and the after party was killer too. Fun time hanging out with everyone, and all for a great cause.

Special thanks to the Habereks and to Pt. Jude Joe and family.

Best, Any Luck?

few pics
 

A few pictures from the weekend. Unfortunately I don't have the redlite mojo, and no prizes for bluefish, so no fishpics for me!

Gearing up to go out...

And some from the festivities.

Joe doing his raffle thing, and the crowds

Dave, Rudy, and the Iron man living life (one more than the others) and the rest of the crowd

And finally, JohnR and Liam with allof his swag (with that amount of raffle mojo he'll be giving his old man and veracka a run for their money someday), and a lucky lady with her new VS pliers.

That was a great time. My first time at the habs. Sure not to be the last. Kacie was giggling all the way home. She's got the Mojo.

Big thanks to everyone involved in setting this up. Had a great time on Sunday!
