Yeah man, I saw that. Should be a good time! Looks like we might get some rain.

Oh no kidding? Rick always does a nice job with the newsletter, I wonder what happened.

Haha... it'll all be in the newsletter. Whether or not you choose to beleive it, that's up to you!

What makes you think the winning bag came from flipping docks all day?

Excellent, Good Luck!

Lol, I have seen Burnie's name all over the place up there. That guy can flat out fish! He has some fantastic tournament reports as well. We had a tournament up there last year and it was a blast. I caught around 17 lbs both days and didn't even make top 10! The winner had somewhere around 23.5 lbs both days!! Definitely looking foward to visiting again in a couple of weeks!

Yeah man, I'll be there. You?

That's pretty impressive. We had a two day at Oneida last weekend (which scorchx is referring to). It took 16 1/2 lbs the first day to win and over 18 the second day. I'd say it's fishing pretty good right now given those weights. I wasn't able to fish due to some family matters, which is unfortunate because I love catching those mixed bags!

You caught a 15 lb bag on day 1 at Oneida? Unfortunately, I had to miss that tournament, but it looks like there were some good bags caught.

lol, that's the truth. The state launch gets a little crazy too!

There were definitely some good fish caught at Conesus last night, I beleive the record was beaten twice! That 7.25 was a beast!

Ben, I am also a member of the Rochester Bassmasters and have been since 2008. I spent 3 years as a non-boater and learned more than I ever thought I could. This year they have also started a mentor program, which pairs a newer, less experienced angler with a more experienced angler. This could help you, not only to learn about fishing and tournaments but also to get to know the great group of guys that are in the club. When I first started in the club I had no boat and I didn't know anybody who had a boat that was willing to take me out. Now, I have a boat and know a bunch of great guys, heck I've even won a couple of tournaments, but most importantly I know a whole lot more about fishing than I did when I first started with the club. Ww2farmer is right, you can go out and fish the open tournaments throughout western New York, but if you are anything like I was, no boat and no fishing buddies, then a club like the Rochester Bassmasters is the perfect place to be!

Power Pro! Not only is it one of the cheapest on the market, but I have not had one issue with it.

Fair enough.

You don't think there is such a thing as a mean mouth? Or you dont think they exist around here?
