For months and months, the fishing
seems to be unusually tough. Limits are hard to come
by. It was the same on Murray. Very few limits and tough
fishing. As always, somebody finds them. Congrats to the
"Murray King", as Gene figured them out and came in with a really nice
limit of fish. Tom finishes 2nd again and comes up with an
impressive 6.40 lb. lunker. Tom finally got that limit and came
very close to winning. Darrell came in 3rd with a nice
limit. C-rig and points and Darrell are hard to beat. The
year is winding down and only Lake Wateree (aka Lake Sorry) is
left. Angler of the Year and the Six-man team will be decided on
Lake Wateree. If you do the math, 3 anglers still have a shot for
Angler of the Year. It would take a miracle on his least favorite
lake for Jim to get there, but miracles do happen. The real
battle comes down to Gene and Dale. With only 35 points
between them, it will all depend on who can master Joe's favorite
lake. Things are interesting in the Six-man race too.
Darrell is in a position to knock Jim out of the 3rd boater position
and 5 thru 7 could go any way. If you do the math, Tom could also
step up and be a spoiler. Things will be interesting on 17
July! REMEMBER: Come ready to pick club officers and set
next year's schedule at the July meeting. Also, let me know of
any proposed changes to the by-laws so that they can get on the
agenda. Let's try to have all members attend this meeting.
If a current member plans on taking a leave of absence or dropping out,
please let me know also. We have several members who have not
been able to fish many tournaments. Check the by-laws for
membership criteria.
