Ellen and Kathy working hard on giving peg numbers to half-awake participants
Mist and cobwebs, always beautiful
The mist over the st lawrence early in the morning, this is even better
A run just a few minutes after the start, and Karen is ready to do her marshal's duty.
Carol was there too. Nice of them to come back marshaling, now that Karen turned 18.
After some troubles to get started, Devin landed his very first carp ever! YEAH!
We carried the fish uphill for his mom to see it!
Rose & Devin's day looked much brighter by then
Back to the river, but a kiss first!
Finally released.
Now those are very organized anglers!
The alarm clock didn't do much to wake up this kid!
Quite a few anglers along river road
Another well organized mom, with good looking method balls
A game of awale to kill the time; yeah, fishing was very slow...
Future carp angler
Finally a run in a long afternoon on the upstream side
On the other side, Devin got a second run! Terry's magic worked.
Karen is ready
And the fish was landed!
Another kiss
At the end of the day, Terry struck again, and this time, it was Carl's turn
Er... what's up with all those kisses?
Nice catch, Carl. Devin, you devil!
Joel dutifully recording a catch
Can't remember this kid's name, but he did quite well. Last fish of the day.
My son Valentin ready for a team award
Valentin caught the 3rd biggest fish, a hefty 29 pounder.
One team member missing; they all caught fish.
The "Ed's Bait & Tackle" team made it 3rd place! Nicely done!
Team Specialist Tackle took the 2nd place
The t-shirts proved how hard this team worked!
And yes, team "Hookers" (!) won the event. Congrats.
This tiny kid won the giant carp sculpture (raffle draw)!
Individual results, I lost track of who did what!
Remember the kid who caught the last fish on river road?
I think this is Carrie, who caught the biggest fish (33 lber)? Not sure.
And the total weight winner is...
Ian Hawkins! And he was a happy (and rich) camper!
