Big Year Leaderboard - 5/20/18

Grady Johnson's Spotted Bass Entry

Things have been getting interesting!  We have been receiving entries for the last couple of weeks from many of our club members.  However, there's a handful of people who are consistently catching new species and making the most of The Big Year!  David Karcher, Brian Karcher, and Grady Johnson have been doing very well!  David Karcher moved into 1st place with a Croaker.  Brian Karcher advanced to 3rd place this week, while catching a Gulf Killifish, Rio Grande Cichlid, and Croaker.  Grady Johnson improved his position, moving to 4th place, recording entries for Spotted Bass, Brown Bullhead Catfish, and a Warmouth.  The Big Year Leaderboard is as follows:

David Karcher's Croaker Entry

Also, just as a reminder:  Please be sure to submit all CPR entries to nolaffc@gmail.com so we can track them more accurately.  Remember, it isn't the size of the fish that's important, it's the diversity of fish species that will determine the winner.The time of 1st entry will be the tie-breaker (in the event it is needed).  Most importantly, have fun!

Grady Johnson's Brown Bullhead Catfish Entry

The Big Year is off and running, full steam ahead!  I can't wait to see everyone's catches in the upcoming months.  If you haven't had the opportunity to pickup a stamped tournament ID card, please let either myself, A.J. Rosenbohm, or Jimmie Hyatt know so you can participate in The Big Year!  Please take advantage of this tournament, and use it as an opportunity to catch fishes you normally don't pursue within the FFI Gulf Coast Council region.
