Congratulations and good luck to you!!!!!!

Ben,you are already a winner!!

You got that right!!

I was just about to post a "good luck to Ben" post, I've been away all week and wanted to get it on the board as soon as possible. You beat me to it.

Anyway, hope you have a great time and know we are all rooting for you, regardless of what state we are from.

You make us all very proud.

Also, be sure to find Stratosdadri (Mike Broggi). He is the director for RI and will be there with our 2 champs from RI. If you find yourself needing an adult, find him. In fact, find him anyway, he's a great guy to meet and always has the inside scoop on stuff.

I wish you both, and anyone else going, safe travels.

All you kids are amazing, way to go and remember, you're all winners in our book, and that includes all the directors that make this possible for the kids. They really do give alot of themselves to provide this opportunity for you.

:)GO GET 'EM GUYS!!!! :)

Good luck!! ; Be confident!!!  

Good luck Ben! I hope in the next couple of years I can represent good ol rocky top wherever the JWC is.

Good luck down there Ben.  I'm sure you will fish to the best of your ability and come out with a solid spot.  You're already a winner, like was said before.  Go get em!!

Thanks guys, I'm really glad to know that I have so many people supporting me, It is going to be one heck of a time, and I will be sure to fill in everyone with the details. If anyone is going down there and wants to meet up, shoot me a PM and I will give you my cell number.

thanks again guys!

Ben

God Bless

Ben

Well this is the place to show it off for them.

Go get 'em kid!!

I'm with LBH I wanna see some PICTURES.

Definately post alot of pictures.  Don't forget the one of your name on top of the winners list.  So do you get to keep the phone afterwards or do you have to return it?

I get to keep it, i'm pretty stoked

Ben, I will will be at the Junior Classic with my son Brad. Brad won the 14-18 age froup in the Ga. State Tournament. Look us up! Good Luck and have  a safe trip. Are you driving or flying down????

Bob

Hey Ben,

Best of luck to ya! I'm sure you'll do well with whoever you draw! As others have said, PICTURES!!!!!!  ;D

Will do fellas

I am Flying down, and staying for the Adult classic 8-)

Are you home schooled?  Just was curious as to how you managed to get so much time off.

Nope, I go to Public High School, and will only miss 5 days because there is no school monday, and I am leaving late thursday. Also, the trip is excused because it has direct correlation to my Independent Research Project, which is about what it takes to become a Professional Fisherman, mainly focusing on the business/ marketing aspect of it.

I will also keep up with my schoolwork while I am down there.

Ben

Best of luck to you! (as I cry in deep ***)

Wow man that is awesome, best of luck to you!!!!!

good luck!

SWWWWWEEEEEEEETTTT!  I will be looking for a FULL report upon your return!  

WOW! As a 16 year old, this is a dream! You have all my support Ben! Go get'um!

One question, How do you get to compete in the Junior Classic? Where do I sign up and what tournies do you have to entry and win?

You have to fish in a B.A.S.S. youth club in your home state and win the state finals.  1 winner from each age group goes.

Go get'em Ben!!!!!!!!! Sure hope his weekend is going great does anyone have any news ????????Just curious how it's going for the B.R.  rep  I know it's the last day. So any news folks :-?    TIA
