After polling club members with the note below sent Sept. 22, the decision's been made postpone the annual club tournament until 2022. The exact date will be announced later, according to President Doug Money. Things have been pretty goofy as the pandemic lingers; this is one of them. We traditionally have the derby at Flatiron Reservoir, with winners determined by the biggest string of four fish, the legal limit. If you'd like to try something different, let Doug know.
Your input needed: Should we have a club fishing derby this year?
was the annual derby at Flatiron Reservoir to determine the club's finest angler: four hours
of frantic fishing followed by a celebratory picnic. For more than a dozen years, the winner
has had their name placed on a traveling trophy that is supposed to remain in the champion's
home for a year.
Club historians, admirers and sore losers may recall that your's truly won the most recent
tournament in 2019, and the trophy has been proudly on display on my desk ever since!
So. Should yours truly, Bill, smugly keep that trophy to himself for an unprecedented third year in a row?
We could just let this go for another season; perhaps kick off the season with a tournament next spring.
Or should we schedule a tournament before the first snowfall? Before the board decides,
please offer your opinion or suggestion. Reply to this note or drop a line to President Doug Money, douglasmoney@gmail.com
Meanwhile, the trophy sits on my desk, while I smile contentedly to myself, and
Rick Golz probably mutters to himself about how close he came to winning, way back in 2019.
