1st John Kline, Bill Bach 2.871
2nd Ken Espersen, Dawnell Espersen 2.838
3rd Curtis Hyde, Kevin Anderson 2.816
4th Billy Bass, Brandon Beyer, Jeff Greiner 2.805
5th Peter Schmidt, Rick Breckel 2.783
6th Brad Halleck, Rich Bryant, Gary Mirales 2.783
7th Brian Russell, Brad Baker, Randy Parker 2.772
8th Jeremy Jahn, Debbie Jahn, Greg Loe 2.739
9th Julie Collis, Dave Jones 2.728
10th Mike Schulte, Larriat Schulte 2.706
As you can see, the difference between 1st and 10th was .165 pounds due to the cookie cutter size of the fish being caught at GP this year.
This also highlights one very important tip to take when fishing derbies. Always have an electronic scales with you when you fish a derby. Just a gram or two can make a difference in where you place. At weigh in the fish are weighed in grams and then converted to pounds. So EVERY gram counts.
From what I saw everyone had a great time. The lunch was great and as always there was tons of prizes to be won at the raffle. John Kline of the winning team also had the longest fish and he shared some great tips on his tactics for fishing derbies. If you weren't there you missed some great information, not only from John but from all many of the derby veterans. What a great place to learn.
There is only one chance to be a part of a KPO derby this year, and that will be the Odell Derby on 17th. This will be a great derby and the festivities will start Friday night the 16th with a beer and oyster feed, FOR FREE!
There was also a good turn out for the junior division, I will post those results in a separate post.
