SPEEDBEAD.

Man, we were just asking about you while we were at Guntersville. Good to see you are still here Jim. Take Care. Wayne

I havent been there for a couple years, but I am originally from Duncansville. I grew up fishing in that lake. Used to love night fishing down by the dam. You never knew what you would catch. You can also drop down into the Juniata River below the lake for some nice smallmouth action.

Look, let me clarify this.... If PM's were involved and the intent to not go was communicated....this is not directed to you (anyone, not just you Fishbear). Those that fell off the face of the earth, as was stated earlier, are those I was frustrated with. I had no part in the planning of this trip, so imagine how the coordinators felt. The people who feel like they need to apologize for something regarding this trip, please feel free to do so. If you did everything in your power to keep people informed, then it has nothing to do with you. I didnt ask any people for public apologies, but I dont think it would hurt IMO Like the title says, its all about consideration for other people.

No, JeremyT is right. He is one of the MANY people I was talking about. I am glad to see that he stood up and acknowledged this. So far publicly, he is the only one. That's a good start to me... Thank you Jeremy.

And I credit JJ's with me getting bit in that same school. The different colors are fun to mess around with too. Sure makes some pretty baits...

There ya go Tony... http://www.***.com/descpageHDCLUCKY-LCGDS.html

: :-? Interesting outlook on Mr Norris. Hidden issues anyone?

During the Guntersville trip last week, I had the pleasure of meeting a few of the members here. In driving almost 2000 miles with Ronnie (Alpster), I saw and heard how much hard work went into planning a trip of this magnitude. One thing stands out to me as a sour point... If you signed up to be at Guntersville, you should have been there. If you knew for a fact that you weren't going to be there, you should have communicated that fact (as many did in a timely manner). Even if you would have said an "I dont know for sure right now," at least that would have been something to go on and could have been addressed. The lack of consideration from GROWN ADULTS amazes me to no end. Hopefully you were not seriously hurt or in a coma, but is it too much to let the coordinators know where you stand? Ok, all done...

LOL, you handled ABU products twice last week....I believe my Revo has your mitt prints on it as well. VIVA LA SKUNKERSVILLE Y LA REVOLUCION!!!!!

Hmm....High Budget Hooker now eh? LOL Russ, you want to PM Jimzee on that one. You should see his wife's reel. Sick, just sick....

Megastrike on the swimbaits and now JJ's Magic on the soft plastics. Both great products IMO.

I am so glad the two of you got to witness that catch!! Mike, dont forget to order stuff online and support BR!! (shameless plug )

Glenn, Ronnie took all my pictures and put them on his computer. I believe he will be sending them on to you. Wayne

Geez, where do I start.... First and foremost, I would like to thank my gracious host Alpster for not only putting me up for the week, but also delivering a SWEET custom pitchin stick that was the *** of many on the trip The conversations to and from were first rate and very entertaining. Riskkid - one of the most generous gestures I have ever seen. This guy was at the trip and let us use his boat the entire time. Doesnt get much better than that. Thanks man. Roadwarrior - another great guy with a SICK book of pics. If you ever get the chance to sit and BS with this guy, take it!! Great fishing with you on the last day of the trip. Hope you ripped them at Pickwick today!! ghoti and wife - amazing cooks, amazing people. The dessert was too good for words!! From what I understand, I will see you in a couple months!!! CJ - Man, that boat is AWESOME. Again, if you ever get a chance to fish with this guy, TAKE IT!! After fishing with him, I realized that I have a lot more to learn about fishing. LOL Cant wait for next year!!! Masshole - You did great buddy!! I am so happy for you crushing your PB. Doesnt get much better than that. Thanks for the extras too. Sorry to hear about the luggage issues. Like I said, STAND ON THE DESK AND YELL. Someone will listen to you. Jimzee (and wife) and AJ - Best development of a pattern on a new lake I have ever seen. These guys got on a pattern, stuck with it and blew it up. On top of that, shared the info with everyone that asked and even gave up the hot spots on the lake. That says a lot about your characters. I am sure that DD is right around the corner too!! Glenn and Keri - Great website you have here. Thanks for bringing all us crazy people together for a week. I had a great time. Long Mike - That is a great guy right there. Many people see the guy that yells about proper spelling. I got to see the real person all this week and he is top notch. Dont worry Mike, I wont tell too many people about you. To the presenters (JJ's Magic, Sure Life, KVD Line & Lure, and Bob Lusk), great products and information. Click on the banners and buy from the sponsors!!! They are some good people. Anyone else I forgot, I am so sorry. Trust me that your company will not soon be forgotten. CANT WAIT FOR NEXT YEAR ALREADY!!! Wayne

Hey, I resemble that remark. My name is Chipper. I need another cold one, in my new hat!!!!

MMMM, nothing better than steak and the Atlanta Braves!!! I think I am moving to Tennessee....

Well, I cant take it any more. I am leaving in 1/2 hour to go finish packing. Told my boss this morning that I probably wouldnt make it the whole day. She said "No problem" 8-)

Sounds like shorts weather!!!!!!!! JUST A REMINDER TO THOSE WHO MAY NEED IT.... Bring some type of waterproof clothing. I am sure, as Murphy's Law would dictate, that at some point you are going to need it!!! Wayne

Anyone notice that the police cruiser in the new concrete is a Pennsylvania State Trooper? I have seen that pic before and it makes me laugh every time. Aint karma something.....LOL j/k

LOL, are we there yet? I am sitting here looking at those new Shadalicious and they look like they need to get wet!!!

What's a Senko?

LOL, that is more than I paid for my boat.

Hey buddy, dont get too comfortable with that levee. I think the people from New Orleans might have a few stories for you. Glad to hear you are safe though. Stay prepared for anything!!!

WOW, there is a blast from the past..... Good to see you post again!!!

OH YES, YOU ARE CORRECT IN THAT....
