It's on!

I am hoping an international crew will put us on the trophy.

Almost always a tough bite, but always a great time!!!

Theresa's 7 layer dip will anchor the afternoon.

Fishon!

One Day to go. TICK, TICK, TICK.

Year 9 Gang and it gets more fun as we go. The Shootout is the opening of a season that all started with just a few people doing. Nice to see the interest from all over. We have quite a voice and are passionate about our sport. Look at the 20 plus trucks in Converse ramp on Opening Day of Deer season with Plates of 3 states and Canada. The Quality of Experience is nowhere else to be found on the planet.
The Sharing of Info Here and the ways to success just brings with it more of the same.

WE are assembled down the docks, up the stairs in back of the restrooms. We will have picnic tables, Plates,napkins, plastic ware, cups. Power is available but bring your own cord, You are responsible for your own dishes and serving ware to return home with you.

I will have Frostbite & Lamprey Hats $15 Ea or 2 for $25

We are about to assemble some of the BEST people to be found anywhere.
Good Luck All, Stay Safe, Have Fun and see you at the Barbecue and Weigh-in . Say Hi Please.

Thanks in advance to Point Bay Marina and those that have helped bring this on again

WEIGH-IN 1:PM SHARP! don't be late. Randy

Well the Cup is Ready.....Ha, Ha, I'm thinking with the Lamprey treatment working much closer to 7-8 lbs

Look at Pat Clark's 2013 8 lb 6 oz 25 1/2 inch fish when we had full treatment the year before in the puddle streams. Time will tell and look forward to seeing you both on the podium ,,,,but I noticed that it was you only Mike getting the the Trophy with you posting. Maybe Joe has another opinion.
He could hip check you pretty well Grabbing a rod. Yea Baby. R

just keep Deano Homewrecker Dennis in your thoughts today... He has gone thru recent surgery and is unable to board a boat for the 1st shootout he will miss to date.

I doubt he makes the BBQ, but who knows...

I will net one for you today buddy!
