I hear ya. When I look at my wife, then at myself, I always wonder,
"what the hell is she doing with me?"

Thanks for an excellent tournament, the weather was beautiful and 10th place wasn't bad for my first ever tournament.
@Red Hering we missed you out there
Was about 26 teams that were eager to meet Uncle Red!

Also, wanted to thank the organizers, helpers and sponsors for making yesterday a good experience, unfortunately for myself as soon as I got out there I got that sick feeling (never happened before) and tried to fight it off until I finally had to feed the fish
. I had to call it after that and followed in Derkd9 I believe. Finished a disappointing 25th. But was nice to meet a few guys but couldn’t stick around. Always next time….

Glad the tournament went well for everyone.
I found when the wind dropped and the lake flattened yesterday the heat became absolutely overwhelming and oppressive.
I too started feeling sick but I believe it was a combination of not eating, drinking and the intense heat.
A sandwich, 3 bottles of water later I was feeling much better.
Water doesn't affect me, I'm not going to join the Most Dangerous Catch but I don't suffer motion sickness.
Way to go @Heitman ! Congrats! Obviously, I'm not a tournament angler, but I do enjoy these fun tournaments.
I'm hoping the LPBAA is able to again run their Fall Classic Pike Derby this year. If the tournament goes, I would encourage those that enjoyed the Pt. Bruce Fun Derby to consider giving this pike derby a try. It's a similar format and you can opt to cast or troll for pike. So @Dotcom , status report on the Fall Classic?
I haven’t been able to do this tournament yet, and I look forward to it!
@racattack shared this video, compiled of photos capture at the Fun Derby. He and team, I think, did a helluva job and I hope we can collaborate again next year!
