Billington Sea Results

    WELL ... we had quit a day and a few surprises at Billington Sea.

   FIRST .... at the ramp ... another club was launching their boats, and the line to launch our boats and their boats was almost back to the main road ........... Needless to say .... by the time we got all OUR boats in the water and drew numbers for launch order  and started our tournament ......... it was a little after 7AM.

   SECOND -- the weather didn't cooperate either -- it was windy from time to time and it rained off and on all day long. 

   BUT ..... among all those problems there was a spark of good news ... For the first time (since I've been in the club -- 9 years ) all 22 members showed up for the Tournament -- AND -- all 22 members had fish to weigh-in....some more then others...but everyone had bass to bring to the scale .... by the way .... THANKS for leaving ALL those pickerel behind.

   STATS  ---- are posted on the website,   but briefly ....... Third Place went to Curt Young with a 5 fish limit weighing in at 12.53 ...... with a bag of 5 fish and a weight of 12.67 Second Place went to Warren Burrell,  but First Place and Lunker went to Gary Joy with a weight of 13.44 for 4 fish and a lunker weight of 4.48.     CONGRADULATIONS  TO  ALL ! ! !
