Hello everyone i'm very glad to be a member of this site. I starting fishing for bass with my dad about the age of 5 learning the ropes, then later started fishing small tournaments around local lakes when I was 12. After that I started fishing the big tournaments for years until I got completly burned out and quit, having not been on the water for 6 years sold all my rod,reels,and tackle, Except for a few of my fav G Loomis rods and the original Lews bbing's. But I got that urge again not to long ago and just went and bought brand new bass boat, and cant wait to get it on the water, also its amazing how much the tech has changed in just a few years being away. I've got a lot to learn about this new stuff, anyway thank you everyone and good luck out this year.
