Great job, Dave.

And great job to QuickDrops Prostaffer and former team partner Ron Hobbs Jr. with the 2nd place finish!! I think that will put him in the lead for AOY. He is the real deal, and IMHO is the best young gun on the circuit. Keep his name in mind because this guy can flat fish.

Congrats also to Clint Johannson and Paul Hall on top ten finishes!

ciao,
Marc

Kromm also picked up the Triton Boats contingency and wins a TR200 boat and trailer. This package is valued at $25,000 and Dave didn't lose a dime winning a FLW event running a Triton Boat. Congrats to Dave and the Nixon's Marine Pro Staff.

So kb, when are some of these Washington sticks going to get some air time with you?

Looking forward to having you award that boat to me and my partner at the Northwest Bass tournament in a couple of weeks.

Marc, Clint Johannson was a friend when he lived in Ca. years ago.
If you would tell him hello for us, I would appreciate it.
Chris and Gary Finch
PS. I beat him at a club fish off at Lopez Lake, so he gave me a bear hug and broke my ribs. I usually left the (n) out in his first name.

I'll let Clint know you said hello. Sometimes he lurks on this board and may see your post before I speak with him.

ciao,
Marc

Great Job and congrats to all the WA guys. Nice to see Kromm and Ron take a 1-2 punch.

It was cool to see the leaderboard stacked with NW guys, unlike last year. That puts Kromm and Ron up there in AOY. These guys are on there way and making an impact.

I cannot wait to fish the FLW columbia event next year. It is not during football, so I will be fishing it as a non-boater.

Next year this tournament is in June, which will be during the spawn in the reach, and post spawn everywhere else...it will be a much tougher tournament. I wish FLW would hit the river in April or May one year. Everyone would be surprised at the size of the limits if they came during prespawn.

There would be some huge bags of fish, and not as many damaged lower units.......
