#13358, "Cat. WON WSB Victory" Mon May-23-05 04:15 PM by Team Striper
Despite some serious setbacks including losing one of our outboards on the way over thurs. & hanging our primary anchor just hrs. before the event began we managed to stumble onto some biting fish including a 36+ lb. WSB caught by Karl (Okiebug). We actually caught 3 of I believe 10 WSB weighed in by the 90 or so teams fishing the event.
I would love to show some of the 30 or so awesome pics of our 4 days at Catalina including, yellowtail to 34 lbs., Calico's to 4, Sandies to 6 & WSB from 25 to 36. But in typical fashion I had to spoil the moment & give myself a reality check by realizing half way across the channel that I had left my camera at the awards. I'm so pissed at myself it's hard to express, not only was it a brand new camera it contained the photos of Karl's first legal seabass, personal best YT & all pics of this rollorcoaster of a tournament. The small blue/blk camera case also included my keys & fishing license. Who ever found it can easily return it from all the info on my license or come by & rob my house & steal my car?
I will try to post some details once I get my head out of my ass & above water.
Thanks again everybody & please if anyone here was at the Isthmus on Sun. & found (or heard of) a sm. sony digital in a blue/bk case PLEASE contact me:

To top it off the wife is beyond pissed.
Thanks to Big Hammer & Booyaa for setting us up for the event as well as WON & all the events sponsors!
