First I want to thank everyone that participated in the Striped-Bass.com Tourneys and made it the blast that it was. We managed to have a fun tourney which focused on C&R and the honor system - both tough to achieve sometimes but not a problem from any of you. Big round of appluase to all of you that participated...
I also want to thank those that donated to the tourney: Mike Thomas from M&D Bait and Tackle aka:
http://capecodtackle.com; Don & Charlie from Weekapaug B&T -
http://weekapaug.com ; and The Habster for donating an assortment of plugs. A special thanks to Saltheart for helping me organize & run the tourney (and for prodding me to get things done
) as well as building the "Ditch Stick" - thanks Mike...
Final Tourney Results/Prizes for Year Long and 4 Leg:
4 Leg:
1) Redcrbbr - 1 1088 Custom Sabre Conventional Rod matched with an Abu CT or CS Mag or 1 1088 Custom Sabre Spinner matched with an Shimano Stratic 5000 or 6000 donated by Mike Thomas from CapeCodTackle.Com // M&Ds, Wareham - Crabbr - which one did you choose??
2) Fishpart - 1 Choice of Batson/Sabre 1088/89/965/Loomis SUR965/St Croix SCIII (depending on availability) in Conventional or Spinning donated by yours truly * (Fispart, we should talk soon on this...)

Year Long (ended Dec 15th):
1) Slipknot - 1087 Loomis Conventional Heavy Canal Jigging stick donated by Saltheart. (as he won the year long which also happened to be biggest Ditch Fish, Slippy had a choice between the 10 Custom Spinner or the Ditch Stick - and guess where he spends most of his time....)
2) Schoolie Monster - Assortment of Plugs donated by Hab's Lures and a few other odds and ends
Again, I want to thank everyone that participated this year. We had a blast (coulda had a few more fish
) and I can't wait to do it again!!!
Happy Holidays to everyone!!!
