Sand Lake was good to us, considering this is the first time fished by multispecies and it was new to many teams. We did have a visiting team that fished and out scored our teams. Thanks John and Skeeter, we hope you had a good time and consider coming out to more to see how you do. Great job to all teams for keeping it fun and catching lots of fish again.
