Bill Lowen didn't get any.  Must have been DQ'd...


That is what we like about that lake...

Good to see Randy Howell on top of the leader board since he is the one who started the collection to help our club member out when he put his boat on the bottom of Lake Erie...

Randy Howell, Professional B.A.S.S. angler (Left), me (Center), and Al Odom (Right), founder of Fisher's of Men National Tournament Trail. Randy shared a story of faith at the FOM's Thursday night dinner.  We spoke to each other. You can't see it in the picture, but all three of us had tears in our eyes.  You can read about his story at: http://www.randyhowell.com/faith.html .  I will be sure to have a story of my own. The anglers at FOM are generous beyond words.  They raised $1200 to help cover for some of the equipment that I lost, and to help cover for the Sea Tow bill of $750.00. If I had to do it all over again, I would.  God is good, all the time.

Unknown if he hit something or it was there when he bought it.  It was hidden by the bunk when on the trailer.  I post this now because he has since recovered and with insurance got a nice new Stratos.  Oh, and the hole in the bottom of that boat turned out to not be a problem, only a scare...

I saw Iconelli headed north on I-81 on Saturday, on my return from Canada, just above Binghamton, NY.  I was wondering where he was headed.  It was the only "pro" rig I saw on 81 all day.  Looks like his pre-fishing didn't help him too much.

Ike was probably driving to an appearance for some needy kids or charity...
