OPTIMIST CLUB TOURNEY UPDATE

Post by Redfin »

If'in anyone cares -----

I was at the in-laws for a kids b-day party so I rode over the weigh in...

I surprised at the number of boats that fished, and especially the number of small boats I saw - with the seas the way they were-
I saw a 12 foot flat back canoe with a 5 on it that had been out :o

Winning fishes were a 5.98 Trout 1st and a 5.75 trout 2nd (I think that was 2nds weight)
I think the red was close to 8 , 15.8 grouper was big tops also-
47 pound Cobia took top-
Buddy of mine was fishing, not in tourney and caught a 50lb cobe--- or so I was told -
seems like some good fish were caught even in less that favorable conditions- IT WAS BLOWING!

I had a 5.1pd trout good enough for nothing.

those are some nice fish; tough tourney when a 5# trout doesn't win you any money.
In the end we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. And we will understand only what we are taught.
