Annual Veterans Day Tournament @ Striper Express - 11/11/21 11:11 PM

I'd like to start off with saying thank you all for your service flag It was a fantastic showing with out with almost 50 anglers signing up and participating. Wow what a turnout! We really enjoy and look forward to seeing all of our angling veterans.
Now how was the fishing??? Big storms/front and The winds had switched 180๏พŸ It was postfront and everything I had been doing and doing had turned into smallbox fish and Sandy's so I had to go looking after some searching we found what we were looking for.

The tournament was a close race. Saw some nice catches. Almost every angler got a nice fish to weigh in. I'm waiting for pictures from other captains and the local news came out and did a story and will add the link to this thread after I receive it.
Thanks for all who have served to protect our freedoms. flag
We will do it again next year!

Thanks for putting this on. Fifty was a great turn-out. I'll always remember my Veterans Day trip with you in 2017. BTW, what length and weight fish won the tournament?
