. Couldn't make the weigh in but at least we made it back. Kudos to the new AC Delco batteries Jeff just purchased, we ended up having to use the trolling motor to go over 2 miles back to Timber Island boat ramp. On a lighter note we found out we would have won Big trout and big red since Jeff caught a 25.5 inch trout that weighed 5.75 pounds and I caught a Redfish that was 26.5 inches and weighed 6.75 pounds. Oh well we'll get em next time. Also congrats to my brother and reel bad on the win these guy have found a groove and seem to be a force to be reconed with.LOCKED UP IN CARABELLE
