Back in August, Okuma ran the What Inspires You video Contest.  We had a lot of excellent submission from all around north America telling us What Inspires Them to get out on the water and go fishing.  

The voting was open to the public, and the overall grand prize winner was Lori Carnahan with her excellent and inspirational video.  Her grand prize package consisted of an all expense paid trip to fish with Team Okuma and to then film an episode of Stoked On Fishing.  

Day one of fishing was pretty slow, but day two really got us going.  Lori landed her first, and second, yellowtail as well as several bonito out at San Clemente Island. 

It was an incredible day of fishing with both Lori and her husband Tim.
