More fun and lots of activities today on Day 3 of ORCA 2011 in Waupaca, Wisc.
Here's some photos from the antique reel casting competition, with Jim Madden warming up:
Len Sawisch, left, shows off his oddball (sorry, Len, but it IS an oddball) reel/rod combo Dolphin. Len couldn't find a category for using this one in the casting competition:
Outgoing ORCA President Jim Schottenham won the Stu Lawson Ugly Reel Toss, and gets the honor of keeping the unique Ugly Reel Toss trophy for a year. No word on whether this will be kept in a closet or hidden in Jim's basement, but kudos to Jim for great technique in the competition:
New ORCA President John Elder gave a talk and slide show on reel restorations today and Len Sawisch gave on called "What Willy did to Walt's Stuff," about Walter Marhoff and William Shakespeare:
Stay tuned. The annual dinner starts in a few minutes, but first, off to the cash bah!
