The contest is going to be a little different this year (we are still experimenting, so bear with me).

As usual, all prizes and rules subject to change because.
Any question, comments, thoughts..PLEASE PM me.

Good luck all!

Ok! I decided to change the rules. You will not have to submit any pictures.

Waterwings and I will go back and forth through the fishing reports section for this year and we will choose who we feel should be Angler of the year. It is going to be tough and If I have to take a fall, I'm taking Waterwings with me :LOL2:


To be honest...I hate this method and for sure will change it up next year. Next year we might have species categories instead of 1 major winner...It is just to diversified to choose one person.


Sorry Waterwings! :shock:

Stay tuned folks.

:shock: Typing this as I'm running to the boat to get my PFD! :lol:

And the PCBAITS Gift Cert is now officially off the list. :shock:

So, here we go.

Remember guys, This is all new (2nd year) to me. I did not anticipate how difficult this would be. How can you choose an AOY when you have so many talented consistent fisherpeople? I am going to change the format for next year ....Still thinking it through. If you can come up with ideas PLEASE pm me for consideration...honestly.

Without taking anything away from the winner or any of you, you all did an awesome job. =D>
