The groups that attended this year's trip were:  Fred Lentz & Rick Lentz; Scott Bowen & Bill Ridel; Mike Miller Sr, Mike Miller Jr & Jim Miller; and Bill Duckardt (Dennis Snyder had to cancel out due to health concerns, so Jim Miller fished with Duck).  On this trip we held several lunker contests (15" minimum length) and one five-bass contest (14" minimum).  In general the fishing was very slow.  The water level was at 300 feet, lower than ideal.  The weather was rainy on Thursday morning and sunny or mostly sunny the rest of the time.  The biggest bass reported for the trip was by Scott Bowen at 4 lbs even (see photo below).  Group meals were served every night.  As always, even if the fishing was less than spectacular, the food & camaraderie on these trips was sure to be real good.
