Our summer tournament season got off to a great start with the Herb Hollinger Sr. Opening Day Flounder Tournament, held Saturday, May 29. Herb Sr. presented the awards at Whale Creek Marina. We would like to thank all those who participated – especially all the young folk – and made this a great tournament. Special thanks to Herb Jr. for putting this event together, Judy Hollinger and John Latwinas for preparing the food, Edith Bozarth and Debbe Starr for handling the weigh-ins and to Missy and Morgan for hosting us at Whale Creek Marina.
Here Herb Jr. introduces his Dad, for whom the tournament is named, while Rich applauds:
