My Bassmaster's Classic Adventure! W/expo Pics
Took the wife and baby girl to the classic, we had a blast! Got to even meet some of my Saturday morning fishing favorites, i think i was more excited then most cause when I would see some on I recognized I would be like "Holy Crap it's Charlie Ingram" or "Hey Kim Stricker! man I love watching hook and look!" I think most got a kick out of how excited I was to see all them. One of my wife friends on Facebook said I look like a kid at Disney world with my big grin standing next to some of my fishing favorites. lol First pro we meet was Byron Velvick at the Duckett Rods Both. Really cool guy he loved my baby girl and i think he would have talked to us all day! Next we ran into one of my personal heroes... the KVD or the "other KVD" i should say! After that we ran into non other than Oklahoma's own Jeff Kriet! Very friendly and I told him I was pulling for him on the last episode of MLF, he said how hard it was to watch Denny just beat the snot of them in real time. Plus he said he fished the same spot Denny was at before he got there, he didn't do any good, then Denny rolls in and tears them up. After that I spotted Kim and his son Danny walking down the isles, I was like "Hey Kim! Man i love hook and look!" I could tell he got a kick out of how excited I was. Then we had to do the "hook and look pose" since we just did a photo we did "look" Finally after a long day and actually heading back to the parking garage after the weigh-in at the BOK center I spot another of my TV show favorites Mr Charlie Ingram from Fishing University I need to go back to get a pic with Ray too! One thing I can say about all of them was every one we met was very friendly and willing to give me a few minutes of their time for a visit and snap a picture, and that just really made my day. Charlie was really cool cause he had a hand full of boxes and after i yelled his name he already new the drill and began to sit them down as i approached and was ready for a quick pic. I really want to go back on Sunday and maybe see a few more famous faces!

The Bps Spring Classic Flyer Has Arrived!
Yea I don't get it either, now on the orange CS it's fine, I just don't get what they were thinking on the Wild. But that Wild rod is so light and sensitive out of my current 3 I fish with, it's still my fav.

The Bps Spring Classic Flyer Has Arrived!
man i want a carbon lite soooooooooooooooo bad cause of them being so dang lite. but heard to many people complain about gears getting rough after a while. tried the 2 they had on display at my local BPS and could feel that slight grind that i heard peeps talking about. Other than that issue i would snag one in a heartbeat. Someone convince me other wise i still want one

Signed Copy Of Big Bass Zone
Makes me think of that episode of Seinfeld when George bought John Voigt's car, only to find out Jon Voight the actor spells his name J-O-N and George still clinging to hope that it might really be the actors car and suggests maybe he just spelled his name wrong. Jerry tells him ohhhh right i some times do that too, i'll spell Jerry with a G and and I.

Garage Organization For Tackle, Need Ideas
Nice i like it! I think i'll stick with investing in some peg board to get started and branch off from there.

Garage Organization For Tackle, Need Ideas
What do you use to organize your tackle in your garage? Right now my setup is one for those pop up rectangle tables with my tackle bags and lures on top. Thought about upgrading my "work station" One idea came to mind was get a ole peg board for the wall to hang plastics lure bags etc for when not in use. My dad uses old file cabinets and plastic drawers that work similar to the file cabinets.

How much you save depends on how much you spend. Looking at a PQ (just cause its to good to pass up) and a new Revo S (this thing is so light and smooth) Also i think I am going to snag my first Duckett Micro Magic rod this year too.

The Bps Spring Classic Flyer Has Arrived!
Got mine! Mostly I'm excited to get a new rod and reel via trade in. But that bionic combo for $70 bucks, I'm very tempted to snag it just because.
-
The Bps Spring Classic Flyer Has Arrived!
what is the feedback on the new bionic reel and rods? The rods make me think of my veritas. I think this year I am going to try a Micro Magic, add that to my arsenal. At that $80 PQ price i think I might snag one just to have as a solid back up. Will be trading up for a new Revo S for sure those things reel like buttah on the BPS display.
