((For a moment, I read that like the Tolkien poem. “The leaves are long, the grass is green, the hemlock-umbels tall and fair…”))

Why thank you, you know I do love poetry. Main when someone else writes it, but a nice cadence is always a pleasure to hear.

Only if I can set up my nets nearby. You can fish anyway you fish! Lake Ashwood is a fine big lake, and there will doubtless be space for us all. Not even icebreaking required this time of year either, or so I’m told by our shu’halo cousins.

Whew, what a contest!

Before I post results, here was the equivalency table we used to make what can be fished up from the lake equal to our invented challenge fish–the Ashwood Bass.

1 Fangtooth Frenzy = 1 Ashwood Bass
2 Bonescale Snappers = 1 Ashwood Bass
3 Pygmy Suckerfish = 1 Ashwood Bass
4 Glacial Salmon = 1 Ashwood Bass
4 of any Cobalt Ore, Crystallized Water, Borean Leather Scraps, and Frostweave Cloth = 1 Ashwood Bass

And our furiously fishing contestant’s results were…

6th. Swizelle (CC) with 14
5th. Yonoko (Thor.Bro.) and Furen (CC) with 22 each
4th. Loshing (SoE) with 31
3rd. Thorgora (SoE) with 34
2nd. Mira (CC) with 38
1st. Luci (CC) with 41!

Luci recieved a giant scrimshawed magnetaur tusk, gift of the Onqewah Taunka! …which they are currently wearing on their head?

Thank you to all the participants, both the familiar faces and the new ones we hope to meet again-and soon! And thank you to my fellow organizers Mingonashoba (CC) and Adlanna (CC), who counted like crazy while everyone fished like crazy! You made this possible.

That was some ferociously fast and furious fishing from our cavalcade of crafty contest contenders! :rofl:

Thank you to all who came out to watch and compete!
