These are the last of the photos from Caroline Knecht (Peachie), all Saturday's Awards Dinner. And for those who were asleep around 11:00 p.m. Friday and Saturday nite, a shot of what you missed.

Most Improved, Fishstick

15 year old Eric Reily, (Fishstick) from Ottawa Canada earned his own way to the Fish-In, and talked his Uncle Marcel and Aunt Lori into bringing him down. He tied flies, took casting instruction, rode his bike between the campground and the lodge, fished early and late - and caught a lot of fish! Here's Castwell giving him an award for being the "Most Improved." He is already talking his dad into coming back next year!

Last but not least, there was a regional festival on Saturday in Hancock NY. We heard the "booms" and Peachie grabbed a camera. We thought it was a lovely end to a great Fish-In 2001. See you there next year!
