Mods, first off excuse me for putting this in probably the wrong forum. but i know this one is viewed the most, and i want everyone to hear this.

i won my first club tournament this weekend. im 23 years old and i just started fishing a year ago. i didnt have anyone to teach me, so i leaned on this site to help me - as it obviously has. the tournament wasnt huge (only 40 people i think), and it took 12 lbs for me to win.

but from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much. this meant more to me than a lot of things that have happened in my life. and i appreciate you all so much.

so as sincerely as i can put it - thank you all.

Congrats on the win!

Congratulations on your first win. Hopefully many more to come in the near future.

Congrats! I collected my first win this weekend, too.

Way to go!!!

Congratulations to both of you.

Nothing like the feel of VICTORY!!
