MarcZ,

I wish I was leading... I wish I had caught a striper worth entering but the biggest (only) bass was barely legal... The only comfort I have is that most people didn't even get a keeper from shore... A couple people I know found and fixed large fish (20-37 pounds) and were winning prizes but the bass fishing was pretty lame. To give you an idea, NO flyrod shore bass were weighed in until the last few days of the Derby where only ONE fly-rod shore bass was entered for the entire Derby...

I still had a blast and would recommend the Derby to everyone...
