First I would like to thank Dave and Todd for putting on a great trail in 2011. As many of the folks that read this post know this is not a easy task…(I will add the toc pics soon)

Great Jog Guys!

Guys

 Thank you all for another great year. We averaged 18 boats a tournament up from 11 in 2010.  It was a great year, we appreciate everyone who fished with us.  The TOC was challenging for everyone. Onota was very stingy only giving up 2 limits. Andy and Jason were in the lead with 11.74lbs with Rick and Greg only 1 oz behind with 11.64lbs. Art and Ron were in 3rd with 3 Smallies for 7.88lbs anchoring their bag was Lunker Smallie of the day at 3.52lbs. 4th place with 3 largies for 5.94lbs was Dave and Sean.  Todd and I were in 5th with 2 bass for 4.82lbs. 6th place with 1 bass and lunker largie of the day 4.26lbs was  Tim and Brad. 7th place was the team of Cote and Cote with 2 fish 3.70lbs . The rest of the group are as follows

8th Mike and Jim 3.48lbs, 9th Tim and Paul 3.24lbs, 10th Scott and Larry 2.64lbs 11th Joe and Fran 1.48lbs, 12th was a tie Ray and Rich, Dan and Gary 1.00lb Dusty and Les along with Charlie and Andy did not weigh in.

 Day 2 meet us with a thick bank of fog that didn't want to go away. It really slowed things down for everyone for a while. Bartons did give up more fish though, and when the weigh in was over the leader board looked a bit different.
