Minutes of the Meeting:

The June meeting of the Pensacola Hawg Hunters was brought to order at
7:00 P.M. June 19, 2013
at Founaris Brothers Restaurant.
President Jeff Weaver presided over the meeting. There were 19 members’ present.

Old Business:

There were no minutes from the previous meeting in May since our Secretary left the country.  The Treasurer's report was given and accepted. The Booray Pot rolled over again last month with 23 members participating.  See Bill Myrick for specific details.  Buddy Yates reported that his son is in physical therapy and is improving.  Ken Repine is also having physical therapy and is about the same. 

New Business:

50/50 Drawing was held…Half to Carlito and the other half to the Special Fund.

Jim Bailey wants the club to take over the maintenance of the club web page.  He will continue through the end of this tournament year but after that he wants to be done with maintaining it.  Helpers will be needed to make the transition and then to keep the site up to date.

 

The manager/owner of Fournaris Brothers Restaurant says he needs a minimum of $150 in food and drink orders on meeting night in order for us to continue to use the meeting room for free.  Members are encouraged to support the effort to keep our meeting place.  

 


Safety Corner:

We are approaching the Hot months….time to think about Heat Stress and Heat Stroke.   Drink Plenty of water to stay hydrated all day long…not just when you feel thirsty.   Keep an eye on your partner too and remember…the quickest way to cool them down…is to jump in the water.


Notes:
From The Tournament Director

The May tournament results were given. Great job to the top 4 last month.


The Caravan was scheduled to leave Food World on Pine Forest Road at 3:30am Saturday morning.

The Meeting adjourned at 7:35 p.m.

June Tournament:

The June Tournament was held on Tensaw River out of Cliff’s Landing. We had 18 members fishing out of 9 boats for the one day tournament.

 

On to the Top Four of the Tournament!
1MAY

1st Place

Tony Boyette

Tony took first place honors this month with a nice 5 fish limit weighing in at 7.73 pounds.

Seems to me last year’s June tournament Tony and his partner Rick Howard took the top 2 spots and this year they got paired up again to take more money away from us.

Great Job Tony!

 


2MAY

2nd Place
Kevin Simmons

Second place went to Kevin Simmons with a nice 5 fish limit weighing in at 7.27 pounds.

Just a couple of ounces behind Tony.

Great Job Kevin!

 


3MAY

3rd Place
Rick Howard

Rick was 1 fish short of a limit but that didn’t stop him from taking 3rd place honors.  In his stringer was the Big Fish of the tournament tipping the scales at 3.48 pounds.  I’ll bet I know where Rick and Tony fished….probably the same place as last year where they placed 1st and 2nd.

Great Job Rick! 


4MAY

4th Place
Jere Jaillite

Rounding out the top 4 was Jere with a nice limit of fish weighing in at 5.56 pounds.   This is going to keep Jere in the Number 1 spot for the year end standings with a 9.5 point lead ahead of the pack.  Keep it up Jere and you’ll be going places.

Great Job Jere!

Tournament Results:

We had a total of 18 members and no guests fishing the one day tournament with 14 out of the 18 catching fish.  We caught 40 fish for a 2.2 fish per person average.   Total weight was 51.52 pounds for a 1.28 pound per fish average. 

 

Seems this year the fish got smaller on us as last year we had 1.34 pound average per fish.  We did however catch more fish this year.

 

On the yearly standings we had 9 people advance their position while 13 declined.  Biggest movers up were Jeremy Burkart, Rick Howard and Glenn Kittrell with each advancing 3 places from last month.  Remember you have to fish to advance in the standings. Make your plans now for the July tournament.  Currently we have 16 member eligible for the Fish Off and Voting Rights.  You need at least 6 tournaments to participate…make your plans now…the season is running out.
