Fearless Rules in Deans Aftermath
Well folks, Hurricane Dean certainly stirred things up, but not in the way some would have liked. The fishing was poor by most people’s standards, but the results certainly make things interesting going into the last tournament. The Banfield boys (thank me for the compliment later Uncle Alan) proved too strong on a night that required lots of hard work and moving around due to lifting current which traditionally is not good for fishing. Second was Hip-Nautic, and given the fact that only your 2 best scores carry through to the overall total, there are now 4 boats who can possibly take a lead into the next round, and the possibility of several being tied on points. This is interesting stuff, and augers well for some keen competition to follow.
