Weeds & birds were thick, fish were scattered and generally small. But, weather was great if one doesn't mind dodging a few showers, and they stayed away from the Captain's Meeting, weigh-in, and Awards dinner at Finest Kind.
68 anglers on 21 boats participated, most caught something besides birds & weeds, and all ate very well. Anglers on the Top Boat ventured out 20 miles to fish in over 1500 feet to find fish big enough to take top honors.
