Congrats to all.

Congratulations everyone. That is some feat.

Maybe one day ill make it.

Congrats to all

Especially Dr. Julie Ball


Hey a rhyme

Edited to correct typo.

Just out of curiosity, what is the tie breaker? does the angler who has the most weight citations claim the lead?

Thanks guys!

Jason,
No winners or losers...it's not a competition. I know it's called a "tournament," but maybe they should call it something else?? I feel the program is simply a way to measure personal aspirations and celebrate an individual's objectives as an angler, as well as gain recognition within the program for participating....basically it is something to "do" while you're fishing.

Congrats to all the Expert Anglers!

congrat's to everyone on the list, esp. Dr. Ball and Mr. Esfahani. That's an accomplishment. I've caught 2 citation size fish in my life, and the weigh station was closed when we got back both times--I couldn't wait, and fileted 'em both (one wahoo, one striper). I can't imagine 18 in a season!! I have also noticed that some of the folks on that list are very helpful in posting tips and techniques in how to land citation fish, and I really appreciate the help. So thanks and congrats!!
