The Winners!

[sevenmmm]

How would you like to enter a championship tournament and be the only team standing at the end of the day? It's a thought most tournament fisherman can only dream about!

It happened during the GNWC Championship. Would have never known 'cept there was a blip in the Green Bay paper. Went to the GNWC website and sure enough, only one team had registered fish.

One team with one fish winning one prize!

The payout was scheduled for 5 places. Had no one caught a fish, all 5 places would have been drawn for from the field of 19 boats. The one fish took all the money (1st - 5th place) plus big fish. I believe it was about an $8,000 fish (or about $500 an inch). Congrats to the winners. For the rest of us, I just tell people "We finished tied for second, only 1.63 pounds behind the leader!"
