Cudos to my MV friend Tommy Taylor who spent the last two MV Derbies trying to help is grandson win the junior boat bass division. They didn't. Despite the initial objections of said grandson, they never killed a single bass because they never caught the winner. No, they didn't kill a bass so Junior could win the Daily; or the Weekly; or worse yet... kill a bass so Junior could be eligible for winning the daily "Mystery Prize".
That kid has learned a lesson from a Guardian who knows how to teach it... by example.

I am not sure the lesson of killing a prize winner is noble. Kudos to you Alan.
