Oh yes, there is one :shocked: I have it in a nice wooden carrying case. No that is no part of the Baton. I was really hoping to give it to one of you on the 7th :tongue:
Besides winning the baton you and your family will be flown down to Disney land.............. NOT. I'm looking forward to meeting and having lunch with you and C&E . Will see you soon

As an integral part of team fish taxi, co-shaker catchin wannabe and chief entertainer, I would be honored to appear at the awards lunch and participate in the passing of the baton. We may not be able to catch fish but we shure know how to take a whoppin like a big dog, and besides, we had a great time. Bankbound, Mike are you in? Hold you head up high and it really wont hurt all tht much........

Default Somebody said something about a BATON?

Well I guess reverse psycology doesn't work on Ifish... :depressed: I thought that by trying to get the STURGON challange BATON all you contrary smack talkers would give it to someone else...

Oh well :smile:

ON BEHALF OF MY TEAMMATES....

(Madwizerd, Fishbait, and Bankbound)

I would be happy to accept this honored baton, this cherished relic, this outstanding piece of Ifish history and all that.

But this award really belongs to those people that supported me... those people that provided the transportation, the guidance, the company, the outstanding smack. It was a team effort, I cannot alone accept this honor without thanking my teammates, a piece of this outstanding award belongs to each of them, A LARGE piece.

I pledge to keep the Ifish Challange Baton in an honored place and send it forth to the next Ifish challange winner (looser) with both pride and relief. [img]graemlins/berry.gif[/img]

Thank you... thank you very much [img]graemlins/applause.gif[/img]

UG :grin:

Here, here. lets hear it for Uglygreen. [img]graemlins/applause.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/applause.gif[/img] Brad, there is an actual BATON that needs to be placed in your care. Fishin Eddie and I need to get together with you for a lunch or something. Hey, I'll even buy. :grin: We would like to get some pictures for i-fish so that you can put them in next years "a year in reflection" scrapbook.

Thanks for being such a good sport about this Brad. A more gracious BATON holder we could not ask for. Shoot, I think you are taking it better than Fishalot, the current BATON holder for springers.

Peace bro and thanks for playing "The Sturgeon Challenge". BTW Pop's is out there today with a friend of his and they are hammering 'em. He's got a 45 1/2 inch keeper. I asked him why he could'nt produce at the Challenge and he said "got a bite, gotta go", click............ Guess that answered my question. :shocked:

Give me a call and we can set this up. 503-775-6585 at work or my cell is 503-539-8825

Oh sure, MissB, shut down a poor little restaurant! If this guy can put the bite off on the whole Columbia River system, think what he can do to a simple eatery. Think of the economy, man!

I really want to see a picture of the baton. Who has one - or do we have to wait until it's handed over to its rightful owners?

Fishalot has one! But this one is special. It's different. No, it's not a plunger. It's a beautiful machine carved BATON. It will make a smart addition to any fishermans collection. :grin:
