Well, this year has really been a special year for me, and its only been 4 months into it!! I landed my dream job, bought a boat, and a new truck! But to top it all off, every time I've gone out this year (5 times) I've caught at least a 4 pounder. Well my first tournament which was last weekend I fished my home river, right behind my house. Everyone knows that you NEED to win on your home lake/river, look at Casey Ashley for example! Well needless to say, it was a very tough day and I only caught two fish, but won with a 4-8 weighed in, for a total weight on 6lbs 5oz.. Luckily nobody else caught anything over a pound and nobody had a limit...

Better quit, it can only get worse from here! 

That was special!!

It was your first tournament, on your home water, useing your own new equipment and you won!

You'll never top or forget that!!

Congratulations!

Mike

Congrats, I think winning a tough tournament feels pretty good.  When you are one of the only ones who caught them it gives you a  pretty good feeling of accomplishment 

Thank you guys! And CD Meyer I agree, it does feed very good to achieve something like that!!
