This is my favorite tournament of the whole year! The St. Joe Bay makes me feel like Snow White on the Discovery Chanel -- there's so much awesome wildlife to watch.

We'll bring slaw and vennison burgers. Uh, let's not feed all the extra food and drinks to my dog this time.

I was opening this hoping to read what the mystery fish will be! I should have known better. The $400 snot cat last year was so funny. I remember "donating" our losing catfish to someone's unsuspecting live well.

Meeting Recap April 2009 The club met at Beef’s on Thursday, April 2. Don’t forget about the St. Mark’s Yacht Club Tournament this weekend, April 18. The tournament is very family friendly. Registration begins at 5:30am at the club. The winner will weigh the heaviest stringer containing up to one of...

We had quite a crowd at the weigh-in Saturday! There were a lot of boats in the tournament and many family members and friends enjoyed coming out to Jerry's to support their anglers.

Thursday's meeting was lots of fun as usual--Pat is quite the enthusiastic and entertaining speaker. It sounds like a lot of people were headed to Keaton today for the tournament. Good luck everyone. Wish I could make it—I’m reporting from an economics conference in Vegas. :smt010 The first tourname...

I just called my little brother in Michigan and told him about the social. He said it sounded too cool to miss and immediately bought a plane ticket to visit for the weekend. He's excited to meet all you folks and spend some time in Sopchoppy. :D Mike, Brian, Boo and I will bring pecan pie, venison ...

We had the same sort of day. It's hard when you find fish, see fish, but can't catch fish.

Nice job! Sounds like Andrew and Lady had fun too.

You should have drawn 15 spots on that pelican and brought him to weigh-in, Steve.

I did take both snacks and crayons for Brian. But, I ate the snacks and Boo ate the crayons. Brian was in very good spirits about the whole thing and let us fish out the tournament.

Sorry, I don't think I'll be able to make it. I've got school stuff going on.

Brian will be attending. I'll be happy to prepare something tasty for him to take.

Got an early start after checking in with Casey. Drank a cup of coffee and sat in the boat waiting until safe light-- good thing we got up at 4:30, Brian. :wink: Smooth river, lots of fog. http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z123/k8show/2009-01/HPIM1582.jpg http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z123/k8s...

Congrats to all the winners! Thanks Casey, and our awesome sponsors for putting on a great tournament. Even though it was a little cold and there wasn't much water, people weighed some great fish and had a lot of fun. :D Eric Keyser and Matt Sims -- 1st place http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z123/...
