Hello!! First off I have cleared this post through Glenn prior to posting it. ;D I am hosting a Take A Soldier Fishing Tournament on Toledo Bend on July 12th 2008. I will need 40 boaters to take out 40 soldiers fishing in a team format no entry fee Tournament. I am still working on the prizes when I know what they are I will announce it. The main focus of this event is to give back to the soldiers who give so much for our country. The soldiers you will be taking out have all been wounded in service to our country. This is your chance to give a little something back. I will be putting together a fish fry/BBQ for the weigh in for boaters and soldiers to take part in. I am also working on lineing up a guest speaker to come talk at the event. I am also taking donations of tackle and fishing gear to hand out to the soldiers so they have some gear of thier own to fish with. This is a great chance to get someone started fishing that has never tried it before! Anyone who would like to donate to the effort contact me in a PM and we will arrange the details. Go to www.takeasoldierfishing.com for more information about the program. (Glenn has given me the OK to post this link)

Welcome!!!!!!!

Flyers at the local bait shops and boat ramps/Marina's should do the trick. If your looking for younget members then the high school and local colleges too.

Now tell us your spots on Rayburn and Toledo so I can verify you do good homework

The fish was probably in a cooler not in his livewell.

Good info catt, now I can find the structure! Just have to learn to fish it

Well first yall need to get together a resume for him. Then you need to contact the manufacturers of lures your wanting sponsorhips from and let them know how your son is going to help them sell thier product. Something like this is where your networking and buisness skills come into effect. Remember its not what your sponsors can do for you, its what you can do for them that matters.

LoL!!!

Can someone post the transcript for people with slow internet?!?!

I hear you man, the wind the last few weeks has sucked majorly. I am ready for some calm no wind days.

Man you should have seen the size of the fat girl I hooked up with on a bed this weekend, she just swallowed my 10 inch worm.

Senkos are the @#$%, well worht the money you pay for them when the conditions are right.

Last month fishing a Tournament on Rayburn I was fishing some shallow water willows that formed a point out in the lake, another boat pulled up on an island 30 or 40 yards off the point and was fishing thier way around the island. As I am making my way up the point the guy gets on his TM and jumps off the island and starts fishing about 20 feet in front of my boat. I shrug my shoulders and keep fishing. We boated 3 bass behind them and they hadnt caught any so they whip thier boat around and go right behind my boat(less than 10 feet from me) and fish back through the area that we caught the 3 in. We then caught another from where they turned thier boat around at and they cranked the big motor and left ;D The next week while prefishing I saw a nice looking wall I wanted to check to see if anything was holding off of. We look around and see another boat about 200 yards up the bank fishing some trees on a point so I figured we had given them enough room and we idled in to fish this wall. The guy in the other boat reels in his rod gets his TM on high and heads for us, so I know whats coming but im ignoring the guy untill I hear his lure splash down about 2 feet from the back of the boat. Then I look at him and say "You got a $%^ problem?" he says "You have the whole $%^$ lake to fish go somewhere else!" I say "you were 200 yards away you dont own the whole shoreline chill out" He says "I am gonna kick your @#$" I say "Then get Started you $%^$ $%^ $%^" He left

d**n I almost spit my drink out on that one!!! That some funny stuff right there

28, I guess my socks arent that old yet.

Good idea!

You should follow it up with the president to see what he has done to fix this issue.

Carolina Rig a lizard or baby brush hog, throw a weightless senko, throw a jig'n pig if that dont work buy some dynamite.

+1 This definately needs to be put in effect, but would it count against the angler if they fish died after the tournament took the fish from his boat?

Hard decision, but was the understanding that you were prefishing together to look for spots for both of you? You should be talking about this the whole time your out with him.

NoooOO i dont want to drop down another place!!
