What does your Bass Resource name signify

Mine is pretty simple.  I was telling a coworker the story of being bitten by a German Shepherd when I was 10.  Firehouse humor, being what it is, my coworker nicknamed me Dog-Bone.  The 384 is my FD badge number.

My name is Alan. I've had many muscle cars, street rods etc...did a lot of drag racing, lots of burnouts.

 

Someone called me Smokin Al one night after a few burnouts and it stuck.

Tc =My nephews initials whom passed away at 15 years old.

Roc = Rock

 I wanted to use his initials in something which turned into one of my previous band names..TcRock and into many of my forum names TcRoc.

It's my name. It was going to be Deceiver but lately I've not used it much. It's a handle I stared with in 1977 when I began with computers and was on engineering bulletin boards (pre internet) and kept. It's a dimension hopping computer in a scifi book by Robert Heinlein. I've been using it ever since. I shy away from it a bit now as in later years as some of the public became a bit more... er.. weird?... I get schooled in religion by them  because they think I'm satan. Funny, I find that back in the old days when everyone went to church on Sunday, no one cared. Anyway, I'll bet there aren't many who have an email address name that's 43 years old!

My initials are JB and I am a fan of people who entered the unassigned lands of present day Oklahoma before the official start of the land run of 1889.

 

Nothing to do with the University of Oklahoma, bunch of losers

All the young kids here - that's the year I bought my house after 2 years of college and 4 year in the USAF.

Ya, I still occasionally use the handle I created back in 77 for the old MECC/MERITS system we had running here in MN back then. High-Schools and Colleges across the state were connected via 1200-baud dial-up to a mainframe in Minneapolis.

A grandson of billionaire John D. Wormefeller and a member of the wealthy Wormefeller family, he was a noted Worm Farm administrator.

Mine is plain and simple - a nickname based upon my last name.

Lucky... we started with 300 bd. When the net and Netscape navigator arrived, the first browser, you'd click a page then go make a sandwich. I was on the govt. bulletin board systems at the time. At least those were ascii based and pretty fast to load. Wild west days for sure. Lots of fun, and lots of frustration. I had a book the size of a sears catalog just to get configured with an IP address. (Funny, some won't know what I mean by 'sears catalog' connotation. The Amazon of yesteryear.

I preferred the Montgomery Wards catalogue.

When I started fishing I would just make casts at the bank.  Now I've learned better.

I'll just save it for another post or if I really get tired of this site someday and want the boot I'll post it.

It’s the sweet smell of success gentlemen! Maybe I’m part Jack Russell but pitch me a bass down on the grass and I’ll roll and woller on it. If you ain’t smelling fishy enough to entice a bear to cover 5 mile to get to you after a day on the water then you ain’t wiggling your worm the right way!!! ?

Every now and then I walk into my local watering hole and my buddy Calvin says “I can tell you didn’t fish today, because you don’t stink! “

How does one "woller"? I looked it up online and didn't quite find an answer I was content with.... ?

Ask any canine or swine 

This takes all the mystery out of it.  I thought J Francho was the grandson of a Spanish dictator.

Mine is just my first name and part of my last name.

I live in Michigan and the state record largemouth is 11lbs 15oz, so in order to break that record you’d need 12lbs. So 12poundbass was born. 

11 lb 15 oz is the smallmouth record in TN

And the world record.

The state record smallie in Michigan is 9.3 lbs, so now 12poundbass is either going to have to change his name or move to Tennessee.

My name is Tom and I’m a bass guy. Or at least I try to be. Some days can be interchangeable with “anythingthatbitesTom”.

I met the guy that netted that fish. He was very excited to share the story. ?

If you ever see a 9.4poundbass show up here you’ll know my son is old enough to join this site.
