[#0000ff]Time for a little update seems the north moved back into the lead... Cool time of year with all the bouncing back and forth that's going on... Good luck to all even if it is snowing today... Later J[/#0000ff]

[#008000]Any Chart watchers out there? If so here is the team lead chart for the contest so far... Fun to watch how the lead goes through the contest... I may post last years chart for reference, if you're interested... Later J[/#008000]

[#0000ff]Time for an update of scores... This was a tough score for me to make, Ahi got a fish that looks like a 30"er, but our scoring method that we use when the measuring device is to the side, we have to draw a straight line from those on the scale and in this case it shows the fish about 29.75" so I was only able to give him 29.5 points... So a pointer for everyone here, is to have your camera angle over the scoring end of the fish so the camera angle doesn't mess you up. (Take photo over length number if on bump board) .... It will give you a more accurate score. [/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]
[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Anyway now for the important stuff.... Ahi's fish puts him with three 29.5" fish and at a score that few exceed in any of our contests past... it also staves off Sticklebacks move on first place for team south... The north is clinging to a 1/2" lead in the team contest... Lot of nice cats on the board so far this year... With the warmer weather I'll expect next week to be a wild busy one on the contest board... Good luck to all... Later J[/#0000ff]

Re: [SkunkedAgain] 2018 Catfish Contest STANDINGS - SkunkedAgain - 04-23-2018
[#8000ff]Couple more scores came in so far today.... Jigfisher put team north well into the lead in the team contest... Even though team south entered a bigger fish in this segment... How does that work out? JF bumped a 16" fish from the team score and cdbrcgs fish is smaller than the top ten on team south... So one counted the other didn't.... Team south talk Pisco into entering his 27"ers from the weekend and you may be back in the lead.... Would put pisco in a solid third place at least... Will be watching for those fish to show up... later J[/#8000ff]

Re: [SkunkedAgain] 2018 Catfish Contest STANDINGS - Piscophilic - 04-23-2018
Thanks for the update Jeff! I hadn't looked in a while and I'm glad to see you got some good ones before the farm took over!

Re: [Piscophilic] 2018 Catfish Contest STANDINGS - SkunkedAgain - 04-23-2018
I did get lucky on a couple, but it's sure changed for me lately.... Last ones I caught was 18 and 16.5" and they keep getting smaller every trip... Less of them and smaller...
Glad you guys are getting the nice fish now... We are about two weeks behind you up here, so I'm hoping in a couple weeks we'll get to see the big ones again... But you're probably right, that's when the farm kicks in and I don't get a chance to go play....
Looking at my fish journal last month, I shouldn't complain... I think I fished 20 of the 30 days.... So I guess I was getting in the time when I could... Hope I can keep sneaking out at least for an hour or so at night to keep finding a couple... Addiction is getting strong these days... Sure want to find one more good one... I'd like to get in the top five this year, but I know I'm about topped out and there are a lot of great catter's that are just getting started...Crazy how much fun it is to wrassle a big cat... Hope to find a heavy weight to tangle with soon... Good luck to you and post those two fish to bump your score... I think that will put you right there with me... Later J

Wow, 20 days in one month! I wont' be able to do that when I'm retired[
]If I recall though, you live near water and many of your outings are short.

Re: [Piscophilic] 2018 Catfish Contest STANDINGS - SkunkedAgain - 04-23-2018
Yup you are correct I run out after chores and it's only a couple miles and I fish for an hour or so till it's bed time... So they aren't real trips, but good enough to keep me happy... Don't remember the last time I spent over a half day fishing around here... Guess I did on the ice at Strawberry, but I usually only go a couple hours at a time... Makes it hard to figure much out, but is fun to keep trying...
[#0000ff]How about a late day update... Got your fish on the list and you caught me almost... Nice bump up the leader board... Brought the north v south contest very close again as well... Later J[/#0000ff]

Re: [Piscophilic] 2018 Catfish Contest STANDINGS - SkunkedAgain - 04-23-2018
Recounted it's 20 times in 33 days.... Sometimes I went more than once in the same day and it wasn't quite as good as it sounded, but probably my best month ever... I don't think I got skunked on any of those trips, although several were one fish trips...later J

[#0000bf]Oh boy now it's getting fun!!!! Check out Ahi at 90 points... [#ff0000]Also look at the pack of southern boys hot on the trail... It's getting good and the fishing is picking up... Get out there guys and catch some fish... [#0000ff]North is still in the team lead... Ahi is still on top and it's getting fun... Later J[/#0000ff][/#ff0000][/#0000bf]

[#bf0000]Anyway I'll cut the bull and show the scores... North is still in the lead, but the south cut that lead over the weekend... Thanks all this makes it fun!!![/#bf0000][/#00bf00][/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Okay I had to make this post, Paddlingkitties just pulled a massive move... What a trip, from out of nowhere to forth place in one entry... Also pulled team south to within 1 point of team north... major power move.... Congrats and nice batch of fish.... Looks like a good weekend to go make a mark... Good luck all... Later J[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]It was a big weekend, with lots of changes... Team south tied the score to a 274 draw... Getting pretty tough to get a fish in the top ten down south, got to be over 27" now...[/#0000ff]
[#00bf00]Up north a 24" fish will still make it in the top ten... Ahi still sits on top... Did see another 30" fish up north over the weekend, but I don't think he's registered in the contest, that really bites because I think he got it out of my hole... figures I try all spring and can't find a 30, and he hits it one night and nails it... Well here's what you were looking for the scores... Later J[/#00bf00]

[#0000ff]Hey guys it's really getting good now!!! Lots of folks catching and posting fish and this is how I love to see the contest go.... Thanks all this is what makes it fun for me as the moderator over it... [#bf0000]Down to business, FishguyBri leaped onto the charts with the first non-Ahi 30 incher of the year winning the BLK prize... he also put team North back into the lead... And by a fair chunk too... 30" fish do that to overall averages... [#00bf00]But be mindful of BLK sneaking up the charts with an inch a day creeping up the scoreboard... Won't be long and the champ will be back to the top end of things... [#00bf80]Lots of potential down through the ranks, with lots of room for movement... Have fun guys and keep entering your fish...
