You two got everyone "fired up" with the "original fishing challenge/kidding around", and got the attention of many others who wanted to join in, so it appears that the official "tie breaker" MUST be held at the August 20th "NEWJERSEYHUNTER.COM First Get Together" at Pequest WMA.
It's nice to see that both of you dusted off your rods and got a little practice in, but "somehow"

this challenge thing got bigger than just the two of you...[cool][up]
After having spoken with Woj Sunday night, and hearing that he had posted that he and JerseyJim had fished and completed "The Challenge", as it had become to be known, and that it ended in a "tie" was disheartening.
I am beginning to believe that Woj may be a little intimidated by my, and others fishing skills, and being that I've found a new "lure" that has outfished the Panther Martin about 10:1, I sense the "fear" in him, and can sympathize with this fear of being beaten BADLY in a fishing contest by any one of the rest of us on this site, but especially me!!!!

I declare that "The Challenge" is still on, and I hereby outright challenge (and "triple dawg dare"!!!) Woj and JerseyJim to not only the "The Challenge" with the rest of the members of this site who show up at the gathering, but to a "personal 'shoot out' to the end" between the three of us!!!!

The rules will be simple, as you both originally intended, with a few mods:
ONE LURE or FLY PATTERN (make,model,color, etc... must be the same - allowed to carry multiple sizes & weights of this "one pattern", only)
NO BAIT - Artificials, ONLY.
Buddy system fishing - Two fishermen at all times fishing together to verify the number of fish and size of fish caught, as Catch & Release is the rule of the day for "The Challenge".
LET THE GAMES BEGIN - GAME ON!!!![up][up][up][cool]
