DIRECTOR'S REPORT
2006 TEAM CLASSIC September 11, 2006 |
What a beautiful weekend for our Classic. Both days were rain free and not to hot for a change. But it turned out to be pretty hot for a few of our Classic contenders. On Saturday Day 1 of our Classic there were 96 fish that brought to the scales alive, with the total weight of 234.76 lbs. The team of Dan Pennington & Dale Brand won Big Bass honors with a 5.74 lbs. toad with the total winnings of $560.00. Mike & Jamie Stoute lead on Day 1 with a 5 fish limit that weighed 13.17 lbs. After the weight in we all enjoyed a hog roast, & after dinner we started out with a raffle for all of the kids that were present, then the adult raffle, with over $4000.00 in door prizes that were given away. Day 2 things seamed to get tougher for our Classic anglers, there were 57 fish brought to the scales, with the total weight of 145.59 lbs. But when it was all over the team of Ed Bauer / Jim Patterson blew the field of 56 boats away with the total of 24.44 lbs. 6 pounds over the second place finisher. I spoke with Ed after the tournament and he told me what he did. Ed Bauer is the owner of Budro Baits on Saturday day 1 of the event he thru his baits, Budro Plastics catching 5 fish that weighed 11.06 lbs. Then on day 2 they went to the top water bite. Throughing top water baits all day. Buzz baits & pop'rs. Ed & Jim are well deserving competitors & were thrilled for their victory. There 1st Place Winnings totaled $5000.00 the team of Andy Gilkerson / Rex Webb won Big Bass on day 2 with a 6.05 lbs Pig. Earning them $560.00 & Big Bass of the tournament plaque. Total Cash & Prizes of our 2006 Team Classic totaled over $20.000. Donna & My Team & I have enjoyed meeting all of you this season & can't wait until next season to start. Giving a New Skeeter Boat away to one of our competitors in the tournament of Champions is going to be very exciting in 2007. I am working very hard with some other of our sponsors for the tournament of Champions for other prizes. I believe that next year will be our best year ever! From splitting the Senior's circuit into a Northern / Southern shootout, to the New River Rat Division. Things can only get better for all of us.
