The Chum Nation has spoken.  We tallied.  And here's how it shook out:

First Place Winner:

John "Montana" Bartlett's carping dedication reaches the highest honor.

Second Place Winner:

Derek Olthuis' Bull Trout impresses many a kypeoisseur.

Third Place Winner:

Dave Hamel's Lahontan is a prime example of what this revered contest is all about.

Slab of the Month - Powered by Cheeky Fly Fishing

We're partnering up with the crew at Cheeky Fly Fishing to add some slab stopping incentive to the remaining 2012 Slab of the Month contests.

For the remainder of 2012, each monthly Slab winner will receive a gift certificate good for $50 in Cheeky merchandise. Even better, if the winning slab photo shows ANY Cheeky branded product, that winner will receive the Cheeky reel of their choice.

Our 2012 Slab of the Year winner will also receive the Cheeky reel of their choice, as well as some other great prizes.

So bust out your Cheeky swag and get a shot at some slab stoppng action courtesy of our friends at Cheeky Fly Fishing.
