WHEW!!! whatta day?? Biggest turn out yet!!!
Had a blast out there today. I can honestly say these are the most hard core fisherman I know! Great people. We battled some minor winds early on, tough troll bite for most, Big bass tourney, but boy it paid off! I imagine over a hundred lbs of stripers were caught today easy.
I personally enjoyed seeing everyone in line this morning and out on the water. Pointing out, there s Bassfan, there is TB, there is Hardcor.. Love seeing you guys and your boats!
Karlow does it again.. Heaviest stringer award
Permanent 2nd placer Disco Mike again falls in 2nd place
His partner Aaron 3rd.
Big fish winner is Disco Mike, followed once again by his partner Aaron.
Kitty contest was Khan
Second was bassfan
3rd Razr..
And for the real award, you know the one that takes real skill to pull off was smallest fish...
This years winner was well deserving, This years winner may be the most humblest member of the site. This years winner has the technique as well as the physique. As we all know true and specialized small game fisherman skills takes years of mastering the nuance of detecting the smallest of hits, but with this years winner it comes naturally.
I think as I speak for the whole group when I say that the skills of the 2013 Striper Bowl small fish winner are something everyone should achieve... With this all said, MEGA congrats to Cutbait for small fish!!!!!!!
....
Here are the numbers, keep in mind, a lot of proud striper fisherman that were present failed to weigh in fish, not because they didn't catch anything but they didn't want their name attached to the numbers!!!! You do the math on the "missing names"
