Location: Algonac, MI | Sharing a little of what we do here on LSC. Hosted 8/25/13.
The 5th Annual - Michigan Ontario Muskie Club (MOMC) Operation Musk-E-Meet Tournament is in the books, and was another huge success. The fishing Gods graced us with a glorious day of fishing on Lake St.Clair. Temps in the high 80's and no gale force winds for once, meant fishing could not have been better. All 20 boats landed fish for the 80 plus soldiers participating from all over our country. Some boats landed double digit catches on the day, with a total of eight muskies over 50" landed. All fish were released for another day.
On behalf of MOMC, Detroit Yacht Club (DYC), Lac St. Claire Kiwanis and Operation Injured Soldier, we would like to extend a huge THANK YOU to all those who serve or have served our country. Your dedication to our country, allows us to have the play ground we all enjoy today.
Thank You to Hannah Dell, with her beautiful voice singing our National Anthem. Also to Anchor Bay ROTC, for displaying our nation’s colors via Colar Guard Ceremony.
“WELCOME ABOARD” to Mobility Works and the Detroit Executive Group for becoming our Platinum Sponsors for 2013. Without their support, along with the countless other gold sponsors, this event would not be possible.
Thank you DYC staff and members, for opening your doors and welcoming us into your historic venue. Especially, Commodore Scott Allen (DYC), Bill Schrader (DYC Rod & Gun Club), Ross Bissell (Harbor Master), Jim Sides (General Manager), Emily Brandt & Alix Dixon (DYC Catering) for hosting this event. Once again, your graciousness far exceeded any of our expectations.
Many 100's of volunteer hours are what make this tournament a success.
Last, thanks to all the Captains and mates, who donated their knowledge, boats, gas, equipment and time.
