The winning Whitefish was 25" and was caught by Tyler's cousin Joel, the Winning Perch was a tie at 9 1/2" the names are still in my car...sorry I will give a full report tomorrow...sorry for the short one now Maureen

ehg Posted February 16, 2009 Report Posted February 16, 2009 Nice job putting this all together for Tyler again this year. That is a real great turnout, and hard work by you.
MuskyBill Posted February 16, 2009 Report Posted February 16, 2009 Hey Mo, there was a lady out there taking pictures, & I was wondering where those pics will turn up. It was a really nice camera she was using & I'd like to see how she made out in other spots on the ice.
Beans Posted February 16, 2009 Report Posted February 16, 2009 (edited) I believe that lady photographer is with one of the local newspapers...hopefully Maureen remembers which one... She comes to the event every year... Actually there were two women wandering around taking pictures out there...the second one was the mother of the young lad that Photoz was entertaining affording her the time to take some pics...I hope Maureen has contact with her...

It was a really nice camera she was using & I'd like to see how she made out in other spots on the ice. Hey bill, there were two women out there taking Photo's, one was from the Bradford Exchange, and the other was a professional photographer who brought her son out. The lady from the exchange will print a couple in their next edition, and both will be mailing me CD's of the photo's they took. When I get them I will post some.... Maureen
MuskyBill Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 Yeah, that was her. We spoke for a while, & she said her son was autistic as well. She had a really nice camera, so I'm thinking the pics would come out great!
motv8tr Posted February 18, 2009 Author Report Posted February 18, 2009 I'll let you know when I get them....if there's some you want I'll figure out a way to get them to you.... Maureen
Fisherman Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 Maureen, when they come, please put me on your list, I'd like a copy too, thanks.
