56 lady anglers from as far away as New Jersey, Maryland, and Texas boarded 26 boats and ventured out into calm, nearly fishless water Saturday for the 24th annual SSC Ladies Tournament. Winds were light, temperatures warm, and following the full moon on Friday night, few fish were hungry.

However, some lucky ladies managed to take home some trophies. Results were:
