GamblerFL, That would be really cool of you to do that for me, but half the fun is getting them yourself. To give you an idea...I collect Michael Jordan autographs, but can you imagine how much more it would mean to me if I got one on my own? That would be so awesome to meet him in person, ya know? Same thing goes for the fishing pros too. But if you do ever feel the need to throw it my way :..lol... I will take them off your hands

I would hope not...with all the testing I did on fish when I was a kid...lol firecrackers and other things. Man those were the good ole days...lol

Don't have a Dick's near me...So Wal-Mart would be my guess.

Oh I really enjoyed it. Met some really cool people and some buttheads too. But that is Show Bizz

Well in the TV shows I had bit parts...no speaking roles. In the movies I was a working extra. So yes in TV you can see me really good and know it is me, cause I have lots of camera time. In the movies that I have worked on, I can find myself...lol When I got started, I never knew there was such a thing as a perfessional Extra, but some have been doing that for 5-15 yrs, and some are in the Union too. Not me...I gave it 2 yrs, and if I didn't get any speaking part I was on to my next role in Life. The Union Extras do pretty good finacially, but it took me 2 yrs just to get there, but I had had enough with that. It was fun while it lasted, but I needed to see what I really enjoyed more. I do miss it, but don't want to go back. One reason why I quit was I got really good a selling sports cards and Insurance. Was better money for me, then moved back to Mich. Now I am freezing my butt off...lol...wish I could go back there and do what I am doing now....lmao.....Bigger Bass out there.

HAHA..to the last note...lol I worked Melrose Place, Wonder Years, Empty Nest, I worked in Last Action Hero, A few Good Men, Hoffa, Music Video November Rain by Guns and Roses, and Love Connection to name but a few. Oh my favorite movie to work on was Robin Hood Men in Tights...that was a fun time.

I know of some people that can help you get yourself started with one. But to find one, you need to let everyone here who can help you do that by telling us where you are from first... ;D

Some ways are easy to get them...attend fishing shows. Attend big fishing tournaments if close by or use that as an excuse for a vacation and hit them up for one. JT, when I was acting, it was weird for me to ask for autographs from them too...and I met and talked with some of the biggest back then..Tom C., Arnold S. just to start. Never got their auto's. Was just nice to talk with them and get to know them.

Yep that too...lolBunch a friends who gather around and have a friendly tournament for braggin rights and some extra cash too. Then some hot coffee or a beer depending on the day....lol This is what my dad used to do...it was like 10 a person anda $1 for big bass back then...but that was only 20 + years ago. :

I think Rich did, but what is nice is that you can update it all the time and never have to print it out and mail...lol

I see a top 50 championship right here.....lol I want to get Omori's

Hey Nick, that is a start...very cool that he sent one to ya. Very nice line up on here so far. I see some names I would like to get when I can. Anyone else have some good names?

lol...I would still collect others though...I have given mine out lots of times when I was trying to break into acting.

What fishing Pro's autographs does anyone have. I have a good start on them. My collection has Woo Daves, Shaw Grigsby, Chad Grigsby, Denny Brauer, Dave Lefebre, Kim Stricker, Kevin VanDam, and Jimmy Houston.

Yeah, Triton also max's out at 200hp...don't know if I am ready for that speed yet...lol My 115 pushes 55+, that is good for this OLD boy...lmao ;D

I enjoy bed fishing, but, like said before...in a tournament, they are going to be released far from their beds. Most, maybe all will never get back to them either. That's tournament fishing for ya. If ya wanna be king for a day..play the game by their rules... :-/

Some of you need to start a Youth Fishing Program in your areas. Tritonman and I run a Non-Profit Youth Program, and I don't know who has more fun...ME or the Kids....ME of course....lol ;D The reason I say ME, is cause I have no kids...so I am like an extra uncle for them all...lol

I wish I could do that. In a tournament can only have one pole in the water at a time. Since we have small lakes around my home town, Someone would see 3 poles in the water and not 2...wouldn't be pretty at the ramp....lol

Because I am not happy at my Job, and I was being shot at when I was over there in 90-91, I do not believe you can ever have a bad day on the lake. They are all lessons on the lake, whether you caught a fish or a cold. It is a lesson learned.

LOL...ok smarty pants...lol I like the Triton TR 176 or LARGER Magnum, The aluminum boats are cheaper than glass, and run just as well as glass. The one advantage that I have over glass is I wont worry to much about coming into a rocky area or a stumpy area with my hull. Now my motor is another thing...lol Always worry about the lower unit. I have scratches on my hull from under water dock stakes, where if I had a glass boat I would have a nice big HOLE in it. So if they ever make a 21 foot aluminum bass boat...I will be all over it...lol

Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm............. :

NBAA has just moved into the state. Check to see if they have anything going on close to you. www.nbaa-bass.com Good luck with your search if there is nothing close for you and your son.

You can make those lures really cheap too. Just ask a bar owner to save the caps for you. You can get over a hundred in one night...lol Then buy all the other things you will need to make them into lures, like O rings, some kind of metal hole punch, treble hooks and you are in like flint. Yes they do catch fish too. Catbird...remember, this is a Youth Angler trying to find inventive ways to make money for a club fundraiser. Without coming out of pocket as much as possible.

Well there went my funny story about Tritonman...lol he beat me to it...but I was laughing so hard that I had to make two runs at him to get in to the spot he was...lmao ;D
