Fishers of Men Tourney

Thirty-five boats turned out for Saturday's Fishers of Men fishing tournament.


35 boats equals 70 fishermen - all eager to hit the water. 


They blasted off from Paris Landing Marina with hopes of a 5 fish limit before weigh in.  No one dreamed that 25 of the 35 boats would limit out, that 28 pounds would be the bag to beat, or that a 7 pounder would be the "Big Fish". No one could predict that there would be no zeroes. After all, this was the first tourney of the season.   It had been cold.  It had been stormy.  There had been winds, questions of if the water would be murky, what was the surface temp going to be???? 


 How could any of these guys predict what would be the final outcome of this tournament.  At 3:00 the answers came in a big way.....

27.78 winning bag.....6.98 big fish.....and 25 limits.

That's why Fishers of Men keep coming back to Paris Landing to Play with us.


Ornsby and Wooley (shown below) in boat # 17 were the big winners.
