Candi, most folks don't know the long hours, money, and hassle that you had to put up with to make this tournament a huge success. Kudos to you girl. I am so proud of the job that you did. Best run tournament that I have ever been in. I hope that you do it again next year. Just think, if we doubled the number of boats again next year. Wow! emoToast emoWorthy emoBigsmile emoGeezer

 

[the maddog]

Even though I was not able to participate by fishing, I had a great time just meeting all the CFF members that were able to be there. It was especially rewarding to see the Goodwill Dogs and learn what a great job they can doto assist a handicapped person. Count on me and my jigbox again next year for sure. Wolftever Kid won it this year, I saw him get all the outlaw specials and electric chickens out then I think Sport and East divided up the rest of the crappie candy colors...lol

 

[cuonthelake]

MadDog, you being able to come to Crappie For Canines was a "Top Dog" moment for me! THANK YOU! And about those custom jigs, the Tournament Director would like to be considered next year for "HER" own personal box! Heavy on the Electric Chicken! emoLaugh emoLaugh

Hi Candi, so good to be able to come to the weigh-in and see the great dogs, their handlers and the folks who they will be assisting. It was great to see you again and some of my old fishing buddies too. Really happy to see the maddog up an at em again.

You put on a great event and touched a lot of people. You are a blessing in many peoples lives. Thanks to you and all the people who helped put this tournament together.

I truly hope that God might grant me a chance to fish in this next year. Judie and I thank you so much for being in our lives and allowing us to share this with you.

We love you sister, Judie & Norman

 

[cuonthelake]

Thank you LabMan for the heart felt words...I have to admit when I looked out into the crowd and saw you and MadDog, plus those goldens and their future partners I got a little choked up and had to fight back the tears of appreciation and happiness for the miracle of it all.. emoHeart emoAngel

 

[Muskrat]

Just an outstanding job Candi. Debbie and myself along with her son Chad were so glad to help with this great cause. Bliss Welch being a friend of Debbie and Chad and getting Murphy was just fantastic. The people we've met with GADA...the good folks at TowBoatUS...and all of the people that fished this event are just amazing. Debbie and I know you're amazing and we're so glad your hard work paid off with such a well run event. Congrats and thank you.

 

[Jmax]

I get choked up too looking at Labman but not for the same reasons, I start thinking about all those poor fish once he gets well enough to go after again 100%. Poor things. emoPoke Jmax
