Jackson Reservoir Jamboree I - May 30, 2009
The 3rd annual COBF Big Tourney was a great success. 17 teams competed over a nine hour period for a shot at the title at Jackson Lake State Park. Early overcast conditions made for a challenging start but mid-day cloud breaks brought improved visibility and increased shooting opportunities. As the day wore on, the wind picked up and again made visibility quite poor, not to mention straining trolling motor batteries to the point of failure. Overall, 517 carp were thinned out of Jackson Lake, helping to put a small dent in the very large carp population present.During the morning registration each team was given a sponsor catalog package that also included special coupons from Sportman’s Warehouse and Dick’s Sporting Goods. Percentage cash payouts and sponsor donated prizes were awarded to the winners of each category and two additional prize drawings were held for non-winning participants. We would like to thank everyone who came out to participate and our generous tournament sponsors who donated many prizes, including NOS Energy Drink & Hammonds Candies who provided free drinks & chocolate treats to participants. All of the carp harvested were delivered to Colorado’s leading organic recycler, A1 Organics, to be converted into high quality and environmentally beneficial composting material and fertilizer.
