We are halfway into the 07 season and things are starting to take shape for the Angler of the Year race. A mere 8 points separates the 5th place team of Paul Carmen and Dale Read to the leading team of Jody Jackson and Jay Jackson with 390 points. Only 2 points separate the Jackson team to the second place team of Dough Johnson and Craig Krienke. Lake Austin will shake things up for sure.

And the winner is .....ME!!! I caught loads of 10+lbrs today.


Bet there are lots of drained batteries tonight after all this wind. News said peak winds gusts were low 30's to mid 40's, depending on where you were in town.

Windy OH yeah.....
We didn't see the double digit bass I was hoping for, the wind didn't help much either
Here are the top ten teams. More details will be on www.fomcentex.com soon.
Also look for the winning stratagies in the next issue of the Keeper Chronicle.

Unfortunately my camera is crap, I expect the lady that took photos will get them to me in the next day or so. I will have them posted on FOM's site asap.
May be some of the guys/gals that took personal pix will post.

Thanks for posting the results, Jeff!  Impressive numbers considering the conditions.  What is the "Keeper Chronicle?" Nevermind, I found it on the FOM website
