This one picture pretty much tells the whole trip's story - Digger with a fish.

And if Digger's fish photo doesn't do it by itself, add Bonedog's and you really have the full story.

In most cases these two were in the water and hooked up using Callaway tubes before the pontoon fleet even lauched.

We missed the photo of Digger's big fish - he let it slip just after putting the tape measure on it - 25", I believe.

`Here's the sight that we saw practically every time we turned around - Digger netting a fish.

After a while, he got a little bored. Then he started to wrap the fish in his fins and hand-line the fish in. Variety is the spice of life.

By mid-morning, everybody was fishing where ever Digger happened to be. Often he was restricted to making short roll casts as anglers were on every side. And he still caught fish.

Here's Kim with a nice one. Everybody else did manage to land trout, plus a few bluegills and bass were landed. I never heard a firm count, but I'd guess at

Digger - 87,

Everybody else - quite a few less
