I didnt do much this year, sorry team :( got addicted to the salt, and am a newb at it so only managed 4 species and its Hard to drive to the fresh when lingcod and gophers taste so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Enough with excuses, not why I started this anyway. Im just curious to get some opinions on where people stand if the competition continues next year, it doesn't seem like many people are into it... I like the general  idea of the game but I am having 2nd thoughts about competing again if it does happen.
 Whats everyone else think?

Oh I did make a last ditch effort today to try and get some more fish.....Rough to say the least, here is a clip of conditions I batteld for almost 8 hrs to catch one 16.25" bass. LOL

I stopped doing KW 'cause I just didn't get out enough... Never got anything promised either (shirts etc...)
my new name should be Ostridge. Got my head in the sand. Going fishing and letting go of the other stuff I can't control anyway!

Looks like team NCKA is in 4th place overall. That's still a great accomplishment!
Looking at the stats, I'm impressed that Matanaska entered 211 rockfish and 120 sanddabs this year...that's a lot of pics to take!

Also, on one page, it had a photo that looked familiar...is this an NCKA image?
Photobucket Sucks!

I am done for now. Not enough time to deal with it. It may not be here next year anyway. Last time out fishing and not taking fish pics was good.

5th overall in total points and 4th in Saltwater points. Unless we get passed today. Not too shabby for not fishing too much this year. I think we had a god chance at winning overall if any of us were actually fishing like we have in the past. Rob carried us for sure.

I got 4 more fish to add and it should boost our inches too.  Im sick of taking pics of every damn fish. Lol. I would have caught more fish if I wasn't always snapping pics.
