Fun on Onondoga

Eight teams went out today for a fun
tournament on a near by lake
here in New York.
$50 entry all going to charity.
Everybody was in some way connected to our trail.
Here in the pink, Kerry, DB, Kevin, & BB
Tammy, Ken, Ali Cook and Teri
Sophia watched and learned about fishing.
She loves her daddy.
Self timer on our boat.
Probably why I didn't catch a fish...
watching the birds and bugs.
Definitely why Soso didn't catch a fish...
nap attack.
Steve caught our one and only fish!
That's why he's the professional.
I spoke too soon...
Here is a photo of what was suppose to be
landing a large fish.
Turned out to be a broken line and snapped
pole shot.
Sophia waking up from her nap,
what fish?
We watched Brody catch this monster!
His team came in second.
The live release boy for the tournament.
Laker ran the fish to the water
after we weighed them in at our trailered boats.
DB taking a photo of me photo-ing him...
Sophia smiling at Oakley
The guys giving Steve a hard time about his
ONE fish...that only weighed 3 lbs
(the bag weighed a lb & half)
When the weights were tallied,
we were announced as dead last.
Sophia still clapped for us though!
Group shot of a fun afternoon
The Howell family came in first with a heavy
four fish sack of almost 13 lbs.
Sophia barely made it out of the parking lot
before she crashed...she wasn't tired you know
after all the excitement of seeing everyone again.
