He wanted to convey to those of you that supported him in his efforts this year all the thanks and gratitude from the bottom of his great big heart. He also wanted to thank the NFL and MLB celebrities that graced his Derby and helped make this the Greatest Derby yet! What a wonderful day and the greatest of people, thanks to you all!

On behalf of Stan and Jessica Brock and the Brock family.

Thanks Eric and all. I have spent years and came so close on this challenge its nice to finally win. We came within 3 1/2 pounds of winning everything on two fish and I lost another big one earlier in the day, shucks.
It was a hoot to say the least.
Kudos to Stan and His daughter for all there fine work for putting on a terrific tournament.
Eric I like last years Pabst hats better. :grin:
It� nice to have you back Eric and that is nothing against Stan. It�s just you are like an institution and should be there.
Next year we look forward to trying are best again.

Eric, thank you very much for the great day. It was great to fish with you again. Stan and yourself do a great job of putting on a first class event. The food was great as usual and the company was good. Thanks again.

Eric and Stan,

Thanks for a great Derby, dinner, and prizes. We had a ball, and look forward to next year.

Congrats Sturgeon Tom and it was good meeting you.

So Sturgeon Tom and Sturgeon Frank were in the top three..........it's time to change my name.....I think it's Sturgeon Scott from now on! :grin:

Good job guys.

See you on the water.
