CPO Siddens was nice enough to come out and give us our pre-tourney pep-talk.




Alex with a nice grassy.


Gathering up for the weigh-in.


Lonnie manned the barrels.




Big gar taken by the Indy Boyz. I think the biggest was about 55".


Snuffy and Jake took three nice grassies (biggest 49lbs) and some great buffs. (Jake is a newbie too!)


1st place team, Davey, Alex andLuke took 275 lbs with their big 25.


Jake and Mark (Snuffy) took 2nd with 212 lbs in 22 fish.


Local boys Roger, Brian and Matt took third.


Matt took the biggest buffalo and won a gift certificate to Draves Archery.


Snuff took Biggest carp gift certificate.


..and $150.00 for biggest overall fish.


Alex Grable won the gift certificate for biggest gar.


Slim's team won the S%*t-out-of-luck award. (a package of TP) The bowfishing gremlins didn't miss this tourney. Slim had to practically rebuild his fan and his generator. This took up a lot time and then Kristina decided to swim for a bit instead of shooting. ;-)
Still, they managed to take 94 carp which got them the Most Carp plaque.


Here's the talley board. Everybody got fish, but not everybody bothered to weigh in after seeing some of the huge fish in the barrels of the first couple teams that weighed in. Sissies.

You'll see Rob took the liberty of adding a quill to the carp and trying to DQ the CIRFCU team. HEY! (just 'cause we weighed in more fish... ha!)
