Indiana Bass Federation Youth – Conservation – Fishing
The IBF Invitational at Rocky Point is now in the books. Your tournament director would like to apologize for some of the delays at registration and the weigh in. The printer problems and computer problems required a lot of manual calculations and scoring. PLEASE PLEASE send the entries in early. It makes the parings and scoring SO much smoother. It was tuff this weekend but I am still honored to be your Tournament Director. We had 57 Anglers and 54 Co-Anglers
All in all this was a great weigh in with a tremendous numbers but the size of most fish was a little small.
There was a great display of Honesty and Character by a young man as he was presented a check in error, he immediately stopped me and corrected my mistake. Dustin Burk your parents should be proud.
