Ok, we have decided.
Nina and I read through all of the stories a few times, and discussed the strong and weak points in each of them. When we asked you to write a story about your most memorable fishing trip, we were looking for you to deliver a story that will make us feel like if we were there too. Such a narrative piece is not easy to do, so all of you should be congratulated for your effort! From what we've read, it definitely looks like you all put a lot of thoughts into this. If you continue to write up stories like these in the future, good things will come out of it.
This was a tough decision between two pieces. One was fairly long, while the other one was short. Both pieces are descriptive, and demonstrate good communication skills. We've decided to have a first and a second place, and the rest will also receive a small prize for your effort.
So..
First prize goes to
The Roe Kid!
Second prize goes to
IamCanadian!
Birdman, Cohoslayer1, Cohokid, Stinkytroutboy will all received something as well.
Thanks kids!
