Long Lake 2008

You couldn't have ordered a more perfect day...as far as the weather goes. Early on and for half the tournament, the water was dead calm. Later, there was a slight wind but nothing that would stress anyone's trolling motor batteries. The fishing was a little tough and slow for most (myself included...I didn't catch my first fish until an hour and a half after the start and one every hour thereafter). The best part was afterwards when a handful of us went to Billy's in Vergas (Best rueben's around :-)~~

This here is my new gun....bass gun that is.

Getting ready for the day are Gary Eichhorn and Butch Wentland as they prepare their rods and checking the equipment.
Hey Boy! Could you bring my boat around...and don't let the prop hit bottom either!

Here, Jim Stargel is trying to keep all the boats together as there wasn't much room at the access for everyone. It was slightly crowded but Jim has some valet skills he put to use.
