Howard, you rock!! Thank you for all the photos. I don't even know why I bring a camera to these event anymore, because you always seem to capture it all so perfectly. And I also didn't realize I was wearing a Coors light shirt the whole time...maybe I can get a sponsorship haha!

Great pics HoJo!!!

My favorite AOTY/DOTY event so far...amazing food, great turnout of old and new friends, awesome prizes, beautiful venue, perfect weather for the ceremony, ton of fun all around.

Thanks again to everyone who came up and helped make it so special.

 

 

Sincerely,

Jim

Thanks for the pics Howard.  I get to live vicariously through your lens.  2018 is shaping up to have not a lot of fishing time in it for me, which makes it all the more special.  2019 should be much better.

daaaayyyummm!

the food pics made me hungry, the beer pics made me thirsty, and the last few made me realize how many years this competition has been a part of my life (and I never even entered the dang thing).

Looks like everyone had fun!
with all those previous year's designs all laid out there, WTF am I going to do in 2019?!

huge thanks to the organizers and crew,  it's a ton of work to put on something like this and have it work out, year after year!

So, I ended up with a shoreline marine paddle that was left behind..... My advice... Upgrade or come up to Auburn 'cause it is here in my shop Don't know whose it is, but I have too many already
