I just went to my buddy AJ's house second place winner, he informed me that the 1/2 pound was incorrect it was actually 1/2 inch less....but that boat sure does look pretty out there, congrats to a local that deserves to win.

Geesh, I hope they didn't make a mistake like they did with the Ice Out Winners, otherwise the winner of the Fishing Derby could find himself going down the line to second or third place and then end up having to many winners. That would be a terrible thing to have happen.

Didn't something like that happen a couple of years ago? I seem to remember something about a delay in weighing that could have had an impact on the final result. I don't recall the outcome but I hope they figured out the problem and fixed it so it can't happen again!
