Wow ! Great pictures, everyone ! I am so glad we pulled this off, and for those who couldn't make it, you missed THE best memory CTF will ever bring .

From cleaning up the camp spot, to running out of gas with a boat load of stuff,( You guys said you wouldn't tell anyone !! ) I had an awesome time ! ! I didn't take very many pictures do to using my wife's big clunky camera.

Thank you Amy for doing pretty much all of the planning to make this happen !! Thank you Sally, and Katelyn for coming out for this, I had some teary moments for sure. Great seeing you guys again, wish you could have stayed a little longer.

Quick overview
Excellent food !! chili, pasta salad, nachos/salsa, Portuguese rolls, egg,cheese,sausage sandwiches in the am, KEURIG D&D hit the spot , music the whole time, ER Medical treatment on the island, what else ? How about all of us in the video drinking BUSCH bought by Matt ? (Get the chill down the back of your neck ? )


LARGEFRY and I checked out the Haddam island about 9 am, due to TITT'S island being flooded ( Amy and Rob checked it out Friday, and Rob and John checked it out Saturday )
After deciding to move it, about 2 hours later, after packing stuff up, and catching some bait, I took a BIG load to the island, and came back for AJ. We then took the 2nd big load. Before we set up, AJ HAD to set up a rod !!

LARGEFRY with one of 2 cats he caught ,before it all started ,right from our camp area..



We cleaned up probably 80? lbs of bottles, cans, and garbage that was in fire pit, and surrounding areas, and texted some others to bring more rocks .. Thank you amy and Glen


Rob, and John making a run to the island




I believe all of the 1,2,3rd place fish were caught within 100 yards of the island ? I caught 2 small ones just north, and probably 6-8 or so right from the island, including 1st place. We really had some great luck there I think the consensus is chunk eel=magic bait, not the Sebile swimmer .

Lots of pictures of loaded boats. Here is Rob and Amy's on the last trip back to the launch





Cider ! Wow ! Will it last till PIKETOBERFEST ? I mean, will it turn to vinegar by then ? That stuff is freakin awesome ! !
Nice to meet you Tim and Dave ! Tim,You guys took off before getting your 2nd place mug must have been the downpours at the end. We'll get it to you, sometime. I think Amy has it ?

Nice meeting new CTFers and sharing moments with other CTF friends made from CTF.
Congrats to Daveydave for 3rd place, we now have a connection for Portuguese sausage, and rolls ! !
Thank you Glen for cooking those breakfast sandwiches in the am THAT hit the spot..

I am proud to sport my 1ST place mug in memory of Matt. I only got to fish with him for a few hours, but spent plenty of time with him to remember this day.
