Fishing Derby

The September 2007 QCYC fishing derby was again another successful weekend, with 10 boats and 24 fishermen and ladies. The winning fish 8lb 4oz was caught by Michael St Peters which was a guest of Dave Nelson.

I want to thank my wife, Donna and our son Phil and his wife Tina for putting on our Saturday night steak dinner, also want to thank Barbara and Sherry suggestion to fry up some remaining onions we had to go on the steaks, for the few that got some they were great. I also want to thank all who helped in the kitchen and with the clean up. We served 38 dinners.
