CONGRATS to ALL 3 that took home a trophy!
sorry to have missed the raffle and awards ceremony,
but i was mired in the recovery of my keys/gear/camera
that found the surf on SAT nite at the behest of a Rough rogue.
i didn't get my spare set from Saugus until 7pm in BRDGWTR, MA.
sooooo, it was much too late to get there in time for the suds and fun,,,,,,,,,,hey, i'm just blessed and thankful that i did recover my rod and reel and my plug bag(at Low SUNam), and am MOST grateful that after a harrowing minute or two i was able to reclaim my perch that night!! note to self~~~no matter how hot it feels, always close the neck on yer drytop to keep the water OUT~~~ |

Thank you again to all that put forth the effort to make this happen.
Was a fun tournament that benefited a great cause and honored a true pioneer in lure manufacturing by a nice guy.
The after party was a blast.

Congrats Mike, nobody better ever accuse you of being lucky(except me, maybe). You fish the hardest, you deserve the prize.
Thanks Joe and everyone else for the great time. I was lucky enough to win a 3.5 oz. blue Habs, Jr. "Footer" needle, and even luckier to make it out the door with it still in my hands.(Kacie, thanks for distracting Iron Mike while I made my gettaway)
