April 21st, Aureate, Aurelian, Auric, Aurous…All Things Gold
OK submissions for the Werner Golden Strokes Contest are over. Feel free to continue to send in those golden moments throughout the season as we love to see them, but this years contest has capped it’s submissions.
Now we will perform a golden dump the next few days and put up all the photos and video. Then next week we will go live with online voting/judge in a head to head battle of the sweet 16 photos and vids. Essentially we will put the entries in a bracket tourney format and through single elimination battle it out until we find a champ. Good luck everyone and now, gold.
What up LVM!
This is a pretty cool sequence shot of me on sunshine, taken and edited by Rob Hurst about two years ago. Pretty sweet angle and lighting with the fish eye lens. Mr. Hurst does good work!
Peace,
Ryan DeKay
Let the gold shine down.

Hand paddling the new in a squirt boat with that much flow was out of control! but so sick! we were hitting rides in our creeking vests up to 30 seconds! Anyways in this photo we decided to do it with no pfd.

Twice the squirt taken at halls of karma by Jon Shannon. Picture is of Steve O’keefe and I playing in the seams in the eddy. the second picture was Taken of me at Fishing with Ghandi on Tremont last fall. Hands down the best spot in Tennessee. Sorry Cowbell you’re second now.

Dave
