Men Holding Fish

The second weekend of June hit the calendar and the 50-somethings took to Williamsburg for the annual Lake Skegemog Invitational. The comradery was outstanding as always and we always eat pretty well during the weekend but this year Al B. and Slick of Team SOL took the food portion up a notch. Both recently purchased the grill/griddles that are the big thing these days. It was like a dueling piano battle as both worked their magic on said griddles, creating some outstanding meals. 
Oh yeah, we fished a little also.
Most of us were under the impression it was only going to be an individual "biggest fish for for the weekend" competition like last year (with side wages available), however, the SOL's threw a curveball to the process in first purchasing new team jerseys for themselves and then subtly saying, "let's make Saturday's two sessions a team bet." They poked the bear as the Seadogs took both sessions with Al C. taking large fish for the weekend at roughly three and half pounds. Three and half is a great fish but the five pound jumbos of previous years didn't show their faces this weekend. No complaints from anyone as we all had too much food in our mouths to do so.
