Besides a bit of rain early on, it was a great night to be outside. The MN river produced as much to expected with a carp, sheephead, and a small channel. We weren't suppose to pose any threat since I was out with a friend who hadn't fished for years. After her attempt at netting the carp I was glad we didn't get into them.
The Mississippi was were the action was, with a number of fish being caught. From what I have gathered the bait of choice was suckers, both live and cut. Below are the results of this contest, and after a year long subaticle with house work, Mr. Kemp showed that he hasn't lost his touch.
Flatheads- 1st place- Mr. Kemp (karl) with a nice 37 X 22 2nd place- Shamu with a 27 1/2 X 16
Channel cats- 1st place- Riverhog with a dandy 32 X 19 2nd place- Flaco651 (another boat partner of Mr. kemp & Riverhog) with a competitive 29.5 X 16
Payouts for the winners in this event was- 1st place- $36.00 2nd place- $24.00
Thanks once again for all that particapated, and made these an enjoyable event. We hope to be able to do these again next year.

We had a blast out there on pool 2. Thanks for having the event Bob. My partner and I caught 8 Channels and 3 Flats. Will post some of the pics later in the week.
I stand corrected on the screen name...sorry MrKeb about that.
As for a Sturgeon contest, what would the fall be without having one of those. Still no date yet, but will figure it out. Thanks again it was fun, next year I might be able to spend more time pre fishing than what I was doing.
