I want to say congrat to Skip Johnson on winning the 2007 District 7 AOY race.
Skip narrowly beat out Drew Bray, Andy Nowyorkas, Anthony Adams and Rich Chambless to claim the 2007 AOY title.
Skip is on pace to be the Regional points leader for the NE region ... If Skip finishes well at our regional championship on Lake Ontario he could win NE Regions AOY where he would fish against 3 other fishermen for an Brand New TR21 X2 Trition..
Skip tore up his transom this weekend and is in dire need of a new boat.
I want to be the first to say congrats to skip and wish him the best of luck at winning the AOY National title.
thanx for the congrats anthoney I sure fished hard this year and feel I deserve it.
I do need a new boat desperatley so hopefully my transom repair job that took me all saturday night to do holds up through nationals so I can win that new triton ::), I still cant believe I was able to pull the motor off pull out the batteries bilge and livewell pumps then fiberglass in some 1" ply wood and a 2x4 then re wire everything re hang the motor and make boat check in the morning wow what a night Im still tired.
I now have a winter project fixing my transom but Im confident I can make it better than new, that skeeter is a great boat so Im in no hurry to go out and buy a new one yet but winning one would be great ;)

That's simply incredible.:o Congrats on overcoming the obstacles in a big way!
Congrats Skip! I know your a die-hard skeeter guy, so if you win one of the Tritons, I'll glady accept it as a gift...
Good job skip..You've been cashing some good checks at the BFLs this year too. See you Friday. (Is your boat going to be ready??) Maybe Anthony can give you a Z9 sponsorship for the rest of the year...
yep brian its ready I ran it 200 miles sunday and st clairs 4 fters gave it a good sea trial plus I just got of the water tonight at the NBAA tx so all is good now I just have to find some more fish honestley I got my 19# and 17# bags junk fishing between peelee point and fawn island :o I dont think Im running that far in the BFL my co angler may try to kill me if I do that to him :P see ya friday.
