Congratulations to all of the prize winners and all of the contestants in this years Fishing Challenge! I believe a good time was had by all.

I have just been informed the Bobby Bass has requested that his Eelpout Festival t-shirt, which he won for his teams 3rd place finish be donated to the Ice Fishing Challenge. And Bobby I am happy to do that for you.

Hope to see you all on the ice.

Oh and Lee, as you are driving by with a truck load of prizes for Wildlife, can you pick up the stuff I owe him? Thanks Lee.

I also would like to thank my fellow judges for an exceptionally smooth tournament.

Thank you Lee for volunteer to drive the truck with all my wines to me...

Lee,
Great contest, a lot of fun, especially the smack talk!!
Id like to donate my gift card to the youngest fisherman that entered the 2011 Challenge, gotta keep those kids interested in a great sport!!
I have already let it be know to several forum members that Wild will be toast in the 2012 Challenge by the 10th of June, if not earlier!!
With that said, Wild won't sleep a wink for the next 6 months!
Bwahahahahahahahahaha!!!!
The ghosts of SEALTeam 6 will live in his mind for the entire winter!!

[Fawkinnae]

Trophies are very close to completion!

[wildlifeminnesota]

Cannot wait to see it.   

[Fawkinnae]

Finally. The Italian sculptor had everything printed in Italian - I had to convert everything back to English. Unfortunately they came in too late to have our winners in the Macy's Thanksgiving parade - that would have been a nice touch. Oh well I think Lee had a conflict anyway. Turns out he had a meeting at the White House. Offered Obama some much needed advice on how to get the country back on it's feet.

Again I would like to offer my congratulations to this years Challenge winners...

[The General]

Doug, Once again you have done a fantastic job.   

[Lee Borgersen]

I was figuring you might send The Barbarians trophies directly to Mayberry. At that point we could have huge motorcade/parade with Andy and Barney leading the way with the sirens blasting. This would be followed by a speech from the mayor written by Howard Sprig.
Refreshments will be served by the ladies auxiliary coordinated by Aunt Bee and Clara. Gomer will sing the National Anthem with Floyd the barber backing him up with the Mayberry band.

Last but,not least Opie will pass out the trophies followed by a kiss on the cheek to the challenge champs from Helen Crump.

PS.   Dem's is  nice trophies!

[wildlifeminnesota]

Wow, that’s one heck of a trophy I got the mail today, I had no ideal that trophy was going to be so awesome, thank you thank you thank you,

When I get my trophies fish back, 31 inch walleye and the 22 inch bass, I plan on making a shelf for the trophy Fawkinnae , that’s cool,

Can I ask you what in the can?  Pork and beans, dog food, just curious and that I have been asked twice now by somebody else,
And again Fawkinnae  thank you,

What? A shelf for the trophy? I was hoping for a room addition.
Glad you like it. Sorry I can't tell you what's in it, but I think I did reveal it's secrets to the CampY girls in a weak moment.

[wildlifeminnesota]

Well Fawkinnae you will get your wish I was planning on adding a whole addition off my bedroom this next summer, Den, which will be my trophy room,
Camp y girls well will see if I can get that seeker out of them someday,

Borgie and I received some of our prizes this week from the 2011 Fishing Challenge. First off we'd like to thank the generous donors. Although I did notice Borgie was a bit jealous when she saw me holding the first place trophy. She has vowed that next year she will be holding her own 2012 Fishing Challenge trophy.
 
                                         ..
Borgie also now has her own Faw.kinn'.ae Sportsman's Club shirt. I tried to talk her into wearing it after her shower so I could chase her around the house while wearing mine at the same time. I guess you already know her answer.
 
I can't wait to use my new Uncle Ray's Fillet Buddy. Borgie keeps trying to use it as an eating fork but the food keeps falling off. I haven't got the heart to tell her.

[Fawkinnae]

Oh you kids!

[Lee Borgersen]
