FC = Fish Count: Trout listed first & if "+" sign is present, the number after means another species, i.e. perch, crappie. * = Rookie (First Year Participant)

Even though there had not been a significant May Fly hatch, this was a tough year for catching.
When prior year "placers" like Barney and Fred get held to 1 or 2 fish for the weekend,
you have to know it was really unforgiving.

Honorable mention goes to Carole Gunter for her outstanding cookery and
Sally Hilden for being such a wonderful hostess!
Thanks to all for such a great time!!!
