gailt — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 18:00:55 +0000

Our May 2010 fishing tournament was as exciting as always at the beautiful Hawks Cay Resort on Duck Key. Our own funny-man, emcee, Albert Arazoza kept things lively as usual at the Saturday night banquet. Our thanks to him for the big smiles and gales of laughter! Of course, we give a big shout out to our fishing committee members: Co-chairmen Glen Tupler and Marcus Thermes, Merritt Bird, George Fernandez, Phil Krystel, Alexis Leal, Rex Nealis, and Marty Yount.

And, the winners are – Kudos to ARAZOZA BROTHERS on the Final-Final to win FIRST PLACE with a total points score of 218.8.
SECOND PLACE was awarded to SOUTHEAST UNDERGROUND UTILITIES with a total of 192.20 points.
THIRD PLACE winner was ACOSTA TRACTORS bringing a total of 168 points.
LARGEST FISH 33 lbs. caught by JOHN COYNE (Southeast underground). – “Reely” good catch!

CONFIDENT & GUTSY in the midst of high winds and rough seas– Up at 5:00 a.m. and eager to go, our JUNIOR ANGLER, OLIVIA NELSON, (daughter of Jeff and Maria Alana) on Ric-Man’s boat, braved the Small Craft Warnings and hooked a 21.4 lb. dolphin! Watch out ladies, she will be challenging you soon.

Another Ric-Man Int’l angler, LISA LAFRATE won FEMALE ANGLER with a 25.8 lb. dolphin

Congratulations to all our winners
and to all our anglers who fought the ever-demanding seas!
We are trying to negotiate with Hawks Cay to move the tournament to June in 2011.
If ever there was a year we depended deeply on our sponsors,
this was the year! We extend a sincere and heartfelt
THANK YOU to each and every sponsor!
