The event started with everyone meeting at the
Elk Creek Marina around 7:30 am.
The weather was foggy and a chilling -8 degrees!

Laurie made a snow angel.
May the fish-god smile on them today.
It was so cold the camera battery died after these 2 photos.
You'll have to "imagine" all the fishing that followed.
In total, the 2 teams landed 57 fish for the day.

Afterward, the teams headed to Sublette Ranch for the "awards banquet". Dale Laird & Mike Hulst get their turns in line.
