SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

We went fishing the first leg of the A-Tom-Mik triple crown out of the little Salmon River and after setting up in 135 feet of water we made numerous runs back and forth in front of the the power plant.This resulted in a 27 inch Atlantic. It gave a great fight and show, but we could not use it for this tournament. Next were a few skippies and some steelies. Then came a 28 pound +king which took about half an hour to reel in. Shortly afterwards we had a cluster something with 2 leadcore lines involved,while at the same time we had a double hookup with 2 kings. One on a 30 pound line, the other on a 10 pound line.The fist to come in after 20 minutes got himself onto the dipsy wire and somehow this opened the swivel and right behind the boat it got off. The other on the 10 pound line was brought in patiently and with great skill. It was netted and tipped the scales at 22 pounds. A few skippies later, the leadcore went screaming out of the reel and we were convinced that this would be another king,but it turned out to be a 15 pound plus brown we netted. This one is currently 4th on the LOC board.There was another steely and it was time to come in and go to Oswego for the weigh in.

I would like to thank Tom for a very well organized, very pleasant and friendly tournament. It was really nice to be at the weigh in and festivities surrounding this event, great food too.

Keep em coming Tom!
