If you held your OWN tourney then your efforts weren't lost or wasted. After fighting that friggin wind all day Fri you would've definitely understood why most of us agreed at the dinner to not have it.
At the advice of Bob Coan, we had the breakfast at 11am instead of earlier that morning so we could get some time in before the wind.
The best fishing Sat morning was from about 6am until 6:30 then the wind took over. So it wasn't worth 20 bucks to miss out on the fish we caught Sat morning. Shoot if we'd waited until 8am most of the folks that caught some fish would'nt have.
If you feel like we owe you something, please send me a bill.

I, personally, had a great time and it didn't have nothing to do with getting in a tourney.

I'll be back in in December for sure but will not participate in the tourney.

Respectfully.

Billy
