From what I gather, Jersey Joe has a spreadsheet on his computer with the results. As of about 6pm last night JJ was still at Sun Harbor with with his boat in a slip, still filled with bluefish and stripers they caught during the tournament. As the sun was setting we left the dock and headed north. I doubt JJ ran up the bay last night in the dark, cleaned his fish and his boat, and raced home. Instead I guess he ran the boat north today and cleaned everything up on the boat. Assuming all goes well, I suspect we will see the results tonight or tomorrow when he gets a few minutes after briefing the admiral of the events.
There were actually six winners if I remember correctly, besides all of the door prizes that were given away by the generous sponsors.

Actually we did run the boat up last night, wasn't a bad run at all. Actually enjoyed most of it. Worst part really was getting up through the Gunner's Ditch. First time I have done it at night and it is dark through there and the candle sticks are a joy to see in the dark. Cleaned the fish also last night but not the boat, did that this morning after breakfast. The complete results are posted in the BFH Tournament News forum.

I would be curious how everyone did as there is not a lot of talk about that. Didn't hear much chatter during the tournament either. We headed just north of the bathing beach and found the fish early. We caught about 20 bass (lost count so plus / minus one) and half a dozen blues. Bass were on top and breaking water and many were caught by tossing plugs and poppers. Once they went down we got more by jigging. Unfortunately, they were all cookie cutters between 26 and 30 inches. We kept five and threw back several that were over 28." Bite dropped off for us after about 8:30.
So not enough to finish in the money but we had a great day and put some fish in the freezer. Thanks to all involved in the even. Hopefully other will post their reports as well.
