				S-B Angler of the Year - 2008
			 
 Without getting into the big drawn out battles like last year    when discussing who you would nominate for S-B Angler of the Year, let us have a names only nomination process that will last until midnight tonight.
 
Simple Rules:
 Angler needs to be a memberName only
 I'll take these names and put up an anonymous poll.
 
Thanks,
 
John

				 | Tossup between Redlite and TO.I can't make the call, not voting (I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings).  Or John, maybe you give one vote for me, one for Naked #^^^^&y.

				 | With all due respect to others already mentioned, this should be a mere formality. Given our club participation in the Striper Cup, and Mike "Redlite" Veracka's well documented accomplishments during the May-September event, I have to second the nomination of Redlite for S-B Angler of the year. |
