New for 2007:  Club will give an annual award to the "Club Tournament Champion"
The "Club Tournament Champion" will be the chapter member who accumulates the most points during club tournaments
The individual must be a current member of Muskies, Inc Chapter 41 in good standing
No tie-breakers.  In the event of a tie at the end of the year, winners will be declared co-champions
This contest will be for tournaments on Ohio lakes only (Can-Am is excluded)
Club members will receive ten (10) participation points for each tournament they compete
Club members will receive thirty (30) points for a 30" fish and one (1) additional point for every inch over thirty
No half-points will be awarded.  1/2" or greater rounds up
This does not change the rules for any of the individual tournaments.  The participation points are only for this annual contest
The intent is that this system is simple, fair and fun.  The decision of the Club Tournament Director will be final on any issues
Purpose:  The purpose of the establishment of an annual "Club Tournament Champion" is to promote FRIENDLY competition
amongst club members, to generate additional interest and excitement for the Ohio lake tournaments, and to increase

PARTICIPATION in these great club events.

Five legal fish caught:

Cliff Honeycutt 35, 36.5
Neil O'Brien 38
Jack Worline 35
Dave Nichols 34

Luke got one, but it had whiskers! His excitement quickly overcame my disappointment in seeing a channel cat. There's nothing better than the smile on a seven year old's face when he lands a big fish, muskie or not. Cool night, but another good outing. Thanks Jack!

See you on the water,

Rob
