Brian and Jim
There were 33 teams total, much more than
expected.

The all-niter directors, Edwin Martin and Bill Dare. |
The parking lot was getting full around 7 PM |
|
The tournamt was from 8PM to 8AM. So all the die-hard anglers, none of whom has a life, raced off to the exiting competition at 8 PM. Fished all night while everyone else in the US sleep comfortably in a warm soft bed. It turned out to be a beautiful night with 3/4 full moon. No rain. Light wind. Nice and quiet water. No skiers nor Jet ski. Very very peaceful. And here's the morning sun...

And they were back to the boat ramp at 8 AM Sunday. |
And they were loading up the boat to bring the fish to the weigh-in. |

At the weigh-in |
Weighing and recording the weights |
