Pawlak and Nate McConoughey both of Twinsburg with a weight of
22.1 lbs. They also won the big fish award in the division with
a fish weighing 8.85 lbs. Derik Warnke of Aurora and Kevin

In the points race the team of Zart and Jesionowski used their
1st place finish to secure the Team of the Year title. They
received a check for $1000 and trophies. First runner up, worth
$600, was the team of Jeff Lash of North Lawrence and Tim Joseph
of Utica. Winning two custom made spinning rods from the
Buckeye Rodmaker was the team of Keith Condon and Jeff Pawlaczyk
both from Metamora for their third place
finish.
The father,
