| Way to go Jimmy and Matt. Very nice win. Now, go get the next one!
Special kudos to Trap on 2nd place. Didn't know where you guys were after Saturday, but way to go!
And Ordway and Kegler. You guys are making a habit of being a threat to win every year. Congrats on a great bag yesterday. I got there right when Dave was on stage.
What is the record weight for this tourney? What was the record for 5 fish? Where would one look?

| Jimmy and Matt sure set the bar high. I had the chance to congratulate Jim personally, although I had to wait in line he is a popular and well liked fella.
I think there were three bags around 25 Sunday. There are some dandy fish in this system. No weight is safe with all the 6s and 7s out there. I expected that someone would nail it and bring in 30#.
Take care
Jim O
