The wind was brutal on Saturday morning, and some went out and stayed out. The wind subsided some by late morning and kept decreasing all afternoon. It was calm by 5 pm. When I tallied the fish turned in, I noticed that many of the bigger fish were caught between 5:30 pm and 7 pm on Saturday. There was definitely a window for big fish right there.
There were 14 legal fish(44"+) caught.
Other Central Ohio folks who caught legal fish;
Chuck Wilbert, 47"
Tim Graber, 45"

Fishermen donated 1300 cans of Food items for the Lakeshore Food Bank.
The Saturday Pig roast lunch was the best one so far, everything was very good.
The weather was great on Sunday and we finished off the remaining pork roast at the Awards ceremony.
There were many fish caught in the 30-40" range.
Manny Farley couldn't attend due to health problems and we sure missed him being there.
I want to thank all our Canadian friends, especially Bruce and Anita Bauer, who helped Manny and I make this happen. We couldn't have done it without their help.
I will post some pictures when I get them.
