Chris Edrington advised that he would be out of town the week of the next tournament and would be flying in late on Friday evening. He asked that he be scheduled to go out last and fish alone so that, if his flight was delayed and he couldn’t make it, no nonboater would be inconvenienced. His request was approved. (1st John Vickers, 2nd Mike Thomas)
Rambo Waugh has fished his three Pledge tournaments but there was not 70 percent of the membership in attendance to vote on his membership.
