A stormy start to the '05 Spring FOCAS Pastor Appreciation Tournament

15.77 pounds

James Shelton and Geoff Baggett

On Saturday, May 14,  6 teams tried to handle what "Mother Nature" was dishing out.    Well, make that 5 teams after Bruce Higbee and Kevin Roberts decided that watching fishing on T.V. would be a better idea.   Strong winds, thunderstorms, and downpours made it tough for the remaining teams to settle in for a day on the water.    But the storms subsided and it turned out to be gorgeous day to appreciate our Pastors for all that they do for Christ!

Usually its the same 'ole story about tough fishing conditions, but not this time.   The remaining five boats were rewarded with catches that would have won the last Pastor Tourney.    But in the end, the Crossroads team of James Shelton and Geoff Baggett hauled in 15.7 pounds.

Norman Cotton broke out of his resent slump with a homerun.   He landed the biggest fish of the tournament, a 4.5 pound largemouth to earn the Pastor Big Fish Award.  After the tournament, FOCAS treated all participating anglers to a lunch to satisfy those appetites.
