X2 - And get that help soon. Back problems don't go away on their own, especially if you continue doing what's created the problem in the first place. Xs 3!!! I hurt my back in a coal mining accident when I was 37. Have had both hips replaced and 9 back surgeries and still fish tournaments. I have to sit to fish and can fish every technique out there well except flip so I just pitch when my co-angler is flipping. Learn to adapt to the situation. I am 66 years old and still fish at least 2 tournaments a week and it is extremely rare that I don't have any discomfort. Kelley

Won't be that bad, I got a Tundra x-cab. Don't you remember seeing it at Fork? Maybe your memory is a little cloudy. Kelley

Now, Now children. My boat will fish 3. ;D Kelley

What Speedy said. Kelley

Would be about a 8 or 9 hr drive but would come for a weekend or midweek. Would be great to get together again. Thanks for the invite. Kelley

Nice catching Ken. You can't call that fishing it was catching. Kelley

Great job Patrick!! Ck PM Kelley

Throw that line away and respool with Sufix braid. Kelley

Me too. Kelley

If the jig feels different SET THE HOOK[/color}, heavy, mushy, any thing that feels different. Kelley

My only problem with TruTurn hooks ia they are dull out of the box. Work great with hook-up after you sharpen them. Kelley

Congrats for a great day on the water!! Kelley

Xs 2. Kelley

I dipped SpikeIt for years with success until JJ's came along. Between the two it is like talking apples and onions. Kelley

Nice boat Burley. Kelley

Steve, I think you need a 'Field Tester' in the Mid West. I volunteer to bite the bullet. Kelley

4lb 8oz.

Sorry Steve forgot to mention my fish came on 10" RAGE TAIL ANACONDA. Kelley

After finishing 4th too many times to count my pardner and I got in the money last night. We fish a 3 hr tournament every Thur from 6PM to 9PM. 5 fish limit. Last night it took 18lb 11oz to win. We came in 3rd with 11lb 15oz. At least we were in the money. I have to credit our showing to MegaStrile. My pardner poo-pooed that but after I had 4 keepers in the livewell he was begging me for some. He caught a 3lber on first cast with MegaStrike. I just talked to Bobby and ordered 3 tubes. I am sworn to secrecy but look for an amazing announcement from Bobby at the ICAST show. I can hardly wait!!! Kelley

Congrats to your GF. It is much easier if the woman in your life is into fishing. Kelley

Glad you mad the Weigh In. Better luck in the next one. Kelley

Great catch. I have only caught one keeper. it was 46 inches and 25lbs. Kelley

I don't begrudge anyone for trying to make some money. What I am questioning is the ethics behind how that money is earned. If I was famous on any level (which obviously, I'm not), I would only promote or represent products I believe in and use. I can't imagine Roland really believes in or uses the helicopter lure or the Rocket Fishing Pole. For example, I'm not a big fan of the Ugly Stick Rod and I don't really recommend it to people who ask my advice on it, but wouldn't you think I would be a hypocrite if all of a sudden you gave me let's say $20,000 to go around the country proclaiming how great the Ugly Stick is. That's the only point I am trying to make. I think both of their attitudes suck. I met Roland but not Scott. Quote by Scott in ad, "Never give 100% when you can get by with 50". They are Lazy 'want-to-be' and 'has-been'. Kelley

Way to go Deb. Be getting them here on same bait. Kelley

Sorry about not getting back to you sooner. Jig bite is usually good on the sides of the roadbeds and on points. For several years there were no shad in Yatesville. Were introduced about 8 or 9 years ago. Crankbait bite can be good also. Kelley
