Bass 1, Beach Chasers 0, Ditch ??

Had a great time at the first leg of the Striped-Bass.Com tourney with a baker's dozen showing up for the cook out (which was a filling blast) and several others floating in & out of the tourney...

The cookout was kicked off with Slipknot unloading TWO gas grilles from the back of his mobile command post to cook up the afternoon's feast. Steve in Mass got us going with Shrimp Coctail and bringing the garden to top off the burgers. GS brought along many ears of corn and and then plenty of burgers and dogs for all. Saltheart's Suicide Strawberry desert ended the cookout with about half passed out in food coma looking up at the sun... Great stuff...

A few had had some fish earlier in the day working the Ditch and a few headed off to work the ditch again while the rest of us headed out to Chatham to try our luck.

Well, I think the luck was with the Ditch boys as we dredged several spots in Chatham without a hit. The tides and the Fish Gods were against us when we wrapped at very early morning without a chance to do CPR on a bass... Bass 1, Chasers 0

I want to thank everyone that could show as we did have a lot of fun, worked a couple new spots and got to watch Slipknot get soaked when he found a hole with just hippers on :P . But the fish won last night's event angainst the beach Chasers but we'll be back for round two, down in Rhody in a few weeks!!!

Still waiting to see how the rest of the ditch crew made out...

Thanks Everybody!!!
