Thread: Slabfest Feb 28th...

Once again the Central Fla chapter of Crappie.com has come through with yet another successful get together.
As with the last tournament on lake Monroe, this day started out with a dawn launch full of anticipation, exhilaration and excitement.
Slowly the daylight crept upon us all, all within our respective positions, previously analyzed, researched and contemplated upon as to where the mother load would be found today.
Surely I/we, would be the one/ones, to pull the rabbit out of the hat and by some chance of fate or skill, arrive at the top to claim the famed prize and be hailed by our peers as the ultimate true professional and champion among us.
Hours later, the toll would be telling, immense pressure, anxiety and apprehension pervade the minds of those that fear they are falling behind, as the ones that feel the sweet taste of success building as they continue to wrest yet another unwilling fish from the great creator's bosom.
In the end, it came down to only one that could stand erect, proud, tall and sure, and his name just happens to be "Shu" (Shuroc)

Shuroc pulled it out of the hat, not once, but twice, capturing "Big Fish" at 13.5in, and "Heaviest seven" at 5-lb 1-0z.
Second place "Big Fish" split between Centerdriver & Chuckautin with twin 13in'rs
Bringing up third place was Speck/tater with a "Big Fish" of 12.75in and second place with 4-lb 4-oz "Heaviest seven".
I have Nick and Charlie with "Big Fish" at 11.25in and heaviest seven at 4-lb 3-oz for third place.
Special recognition has to go to Nick and Charlie for having captured "Most Fish" with a total of 27 caught and boated.
Speck/tater came in second in "most" category with 14 put in the boat.
Shu only had his 7.
Centerdriver had 4.
Chuckautin had 2.
And I have no info on the rest of us.
We had new guests, Paula, John and Carl, who caught 12 but did not participate in the weigh-in.
Total present was 14 folks
