There was some anxiety
about weather, but alas, it turned out to be a great day, reasonable
seas and no rain.Committee Boat announcer, Beth Davis called lines in at 8:00am and out at 3:00pm. Weigh Master Jim Weix opened the scale at 3:00.
Thirty anglers including men, women, and junior
anglers fished releasing five sailfish and catching several gamefish to
25 lbs. including dolphin, kingfish, and wahoo.

Chefs Andy Kubiak and Dave Long did a great job on the grill with hamburgers, hot dogs, and dolphin (donated by anglers of the day). Special thanks to Jodi Mills for chopping up all the fixings and providing an awesome pot of homemade baked beans.
Thank you to all the volunteers for your work to make the 2015 Members
Tournament a success. I believe everyone had a great time, and it could
not have happened without your help.

While
each of your efforts were important to bringing the whole event off,
special recognition goes to Terri Frederick for her hours of work on the
logo, shirts, and awards, to Brett Schaming on banner duty Thursday and
again Sunday morning, John Millroy for management of the audio systems,
Beth for sitting by a fairly quiet radio from 6:15AM to 5:00PM, and
Margaret Dyer for jumping in on short notice to
Saturday afternoon. And, yes, to the geriatrics team who
handled all the tables & chairs Friday and Monday. They included
Duff Dyer, Bill Astras, Skip Lascell, and yours truly. Certainly they
were very grateful to Jon Meade and Russell Frederick from Showtime! who
joined in on Monday morning to load & return such.
