It's true.  I routinely win such competitions as DentonDoc, MagicPaddler, Quentin & others will attest.  They have served as "judges" for our after-dinner shoreline "itty-bitty fishing contests."  Rules were that contestants were allowed but so many casts.  Alas, I sometimes was accused of "bending the rules", requiring intervention & strict interpretations by our esteemed judges panel.  The most frequent complaint was that I was "jigging" and NOT actually "retrieving" my itty-bitty fishing lures after certain casts. That's a subjective judgment call, of course, and - when I had the preferred libation of the majority of judges in stock - it's amazing how those calls went MY way more often than not.

Sadly, I find myself unable to attach a particularly pertinent (& appropriate) photograph of my winning entry from 2009 taken in Woodland Caribou Park.  The JPG size is, apparently, too large.  Let it suffice to say that the winning fish was measured against my  fully extended MIDDLE finger, which was pointing directly at the cameraman.  Hmmm... seems to me I had PJ on my mind at the time.  Clearly, I was gesturing, "Top that, sucker!" 

If I can find some way to post this trophy pic, I will do so... though that bearded version of myself is, perhaps, best left relegated to the darkest recesses of my archives....
