I would like to update to all the SPPB Members that Darrell is doing much better and from what he told me the tests came back negative on the possible stroke symptoms which caused his stay at the hospital. I have talked with him a few times and he is getting better every day and hopes to return soon. 7 teams showed up to compete on this September day. From the reports on how the fishing was going to be, not too many had good expectations on the fishing conditions. Only 4 teams weighed in fish and there were no limits. Guess the reports were correct. Oh yes the two teams tied for first both zeroed.
First Place with 4 bass weighing 10.43 lbs goes to Rob and Tony
Second Place with 2 bass weighing 5.65 lbs goes to Eric and Gary
Third Place with 2 bass weighing 3.42 lbs goes to Mike and Steve
Big Bass weighing 4.32 lbs goes to Rob and Tony
50/50 winner goes to Justin
Before the tournament the members brought up a couple of questions regarding the rules. We all understand that over the past few years we have been relaxed in rule # 7 and the classic qualifications. Also on the rule # 15 about the weigh in time and location it was understood that we did not want every team standing in line at the scales. It was unanimous that we go back to following the rules effective immediately and re-wording some of the language. I have been working on some ideas and we will be discussing at the next tournament. It was also brought up that we are a team membership club, not an open tournament club. It is almost that time of year when we will be choosing next years lakes. We have been pulling lakes out of a hat recently, but someone mentioned about going back to nominating and voting on the lakes? Please think about these few objectives and we will discuss as a club the best way to implement.
The next tournament is October 25th on Lake Istokpoga.
Hope to see all at the ramp,
Mike
