It took a long time to update all of the information for the past weekend, so I am sorry for the delay in posting our results. I am also without a boat until Knox Marine investigates the issues I have with my Ranger.

It doesn’t seem possible that we are over half way through the fishing season.

The AOY race is starting to heat up with Don Ratcliff in the lead but that can change quickly as the tournament finishes are very competitive this year. It will be interesting to see who rises to the top this year.
