Here are some pictures from the 2005 season. Click on the thumbnail images for larger versions.

Our first tournament on lake Iamonia was hampered by extremely high water due to local flooding. It made boat launching difficult and catching fish even more difficult.

Here are the boats gathering before the launch of our first tournament.

Here's Taylor Hulett and Taylor Walker with Mr. Jim Longfellow and Steven Weeks and Cody Spears with Mr. Ed Thompson ready to launch.

So far Brock Walker has only weighed in one fish per tournament, but it has always been a good one. On lake Iamonia he caught this one which was big fish for the tournament and good enough for the second place finish. If your gonna catch just one, make it a good one eh Brock?
