Did the wind blow a little?

At 6:30 a.m. the wind was very brisk from the sw,but by 7:30 had laid down to a slight breeze. We had 11 boats in the tournament.
Top 3 money winners were; Chuck Collins/Jeff Trent with 12#15oz. 2nd was Dale Evans/Erica Bunch with 11#12oz. 3rd was Robbie Green/John Vickers with 10#2oz.
Big fish pot went to Chuck Collins with a 5#15oz trout.
I'll post complete results later.

Congratulations to the money winners..... HECK, Congratulations to anybody that fished that tournament!! 
Jumptrout understated the wind conditions (IMO). Drift sock was out all day....got wet cross'n to a different spot at mid day. I'll let my partner and captain (got to say he did everything he could think of to put us on fish) tell any details he wants to share but it was a tough day of fishing for a number of the teams. Those who prefished the day before and thought they knew where the fish would be.... found nobody home on tournament day. My partner and I at least managed two of the biggest Red fish you can legally take. Mine was sure good last night One additional word of THANKS! to LITTORAL. As Eerman and I were washing the salt off our gear, back at the Hotel, Lit shows up 
He's in town playing a gig and since he's familiar with the local area...gives us a recommendation for dinner. Peppers...a Mexican restaurant. IT WAS FANTASTIC Thanks Lit.
