James and Dennis: Thanks for being such good hosts for out get-together. Everyone caught a few fish and had a great time. Thanks for ordering up that great weather.

I have been approached by a few people to have a tournament this weekend. This winter has been really mild and the fish have been biting. John Goodman is having a Big Bass tournament on the N.W River this Saturday but a lot of people would like to have it be a 5 fish limit. So I have got with John and we are going to hold 2 tournaments on this Saturday. John is going to hold his big bass and I am going to hold a 5 fish tournament. You as the fisherman will have the option to fish mine or Johns or both if you like. Both tournaments will be held on the N.W River from 8am to 2pm. Johns tournament is $20 per fisherman. Mine will be $20 per boat plus $5 ramp fee. I will pay 1 spot up to 10 boats and I will only be doing total weight not Big Fish. I hope this is not to confusing and I hope to see everyone this Saturday.

Results from the Crappie/Yellow Perch Tournament....19 boats (not sure how many fished) Steve West of Chesapeake , VA won the crappie division with 1.18 #s.... Bennett Twiford of Franklin, Va won the yellow perch division with 1.385 #s... Congratulations to the winners and to all that took the time to fish the river. You all don't have to wait another year to come back. Will post the pictures later.. See ya @ the HOLE

Sid, I am definitely interested as well. I am planning on PCSing around then but I should be able to work it in.

Jeremy; I've been busy trying to raise my teenagers. I fished the HOLE on Wednesday for a couple hours are we put 7 bass in the boat throwing Senkos. 2 fish were 3#ers. See you'all soon. JP
