Duane just fished the Stren at Lake Oroville. The fishing was slow and the fish were small. On day one he went out and caught a limit, but went into day two in 51st place. Middle of the pack, not bad. When he blasted off on day two he just went to fish. Because he was the first boat on day one he was the last one on day 2. Good thing he was. Duane ended up weighing in the big fish of the day and four others to catapult him into 5th place!! Amazing. No one could believe he made such a massive jump. Top Ten here he comes! On the third and final day Duane went to win. He ended up in 9th place, but cashed a check and brought home a plaque. It was a great day for him and everyone involved. Duane's mom, two brothers, niece and nephews and friends came to watch the weigh ins as did my sis, brother in law and niece. It was so much fun. Everyone was happy to be there. (The Chico State team also took 2nd in their tournament.) When Duane was on stage weighing in his fish he then wished me a happy birthday and told me we where flying to Disneyland the next day!!
