Make sure you all get in the casting contest and stick around for the raffles each day. Loads of great stuff, including Pro and Co FLW National Guard entrys for 2010. Rick G.

There is no hype... it is everything you've heard and then some!

I attended in '05, '06 and '07, and have spent the entire weekend from start to finish each time... I'll be doing so again this year. I can't express how much I've learned and how many unique opportunities I've experienced during those times. The speakers are all top-notch and willing to share all, and are extremely accessible both during and between seminars. Also, there are a great many in attendance who are not conducting seminars, but are approachable none the less and willing to talk and share as well.

Throw in a collection of the best bass tackle and gear, including many debut products, the Anglers crew, and so many friends and acquaintances in a relaxed atmosphere, and it is worth setting the entire weekend aside.

Unsolicited and sincere, this is my honest evaluation and why I'm driving 400 miles to once again attend another BAT!

TUNA, thank you for the post, I am really looking forward to seeing it as well. It sounds like a great time.

Also come by that weekend to meet and get an autograph from Former Los Angeles Angel and current Oakland "A"s 3rd baseman Adam Kennedy. Have your kids bring their gloves or ball for a signing. Hope to see you there. Rick G.

Actually it should be much better. Good seminar speakers as usual, great vendors with loads of new product, workshops with some of the west's best fishermen, the Lowrance full factory display with the first chance to get the new Lowrance Side Imaging stuff, Casting contest, Big raffle both days, better parking, lower interest rates for the boats and lower prices, better sound system, Kent Brown is the MC and sports on the TV. Only thing we dont have is beer and a stripper pole. If that is not enough I will give you a refund on the entry price lol. Rick G.

Looking forward to seeing you all this year down at the BAT.

As noted I will be speaking both days in a open format discussion about anything you would like to talk about(from Float-N-Fly fishing to the Big Baits).
If there are certain topics you would like me to hit on please post them here and I will take notes and make sure we have enough time go over them.

Thanks and "Keep in the BBZ"

Bill, I'm looking forward to seeing you this weekend and sitting in on your workshops.

I'd like to hear how you prepare for a tournament, as opposed to a day of hog hunting - what similarities are there, what changes with your approach, any prefishing tips, etc.

I know you're extremely successful on both sides of the equation, so I'd really like to hear what you care to share.

THANKS!!!

Roger

Its kind of hard to get Bill to talk about this one but well worth it!
so I need some help from every one.

Bill has a presantation on shadows and the postion of the sun, small lure/and big bait presantation that I think every angler should know about, you will walk away from this and if applied You will catch more fish
I learned more in 20 minute talk with Bill on the boat ramp than in any book I have every read on bass fishing and would like to here the whole thing from A to Z.

How the sholder holding up Bill?

Bill Siemantel · Post by **Bill Siemantel** » Thu Nov 19, 2009 6:06 am

Jr and tunaman,

You are killing me

LOL,

I think Rick only wants me to talk for an hour and both of those topics can go for 2 hours easy. Jr, if you are in the crowd toss that one up to me early and I will go into more detail for you. tunaman, I may have to hit on the tournament thing on day 2 if that's OK, just remind me.

I start to talk about fishing and it could lead to anywhere

BIll

tunaman · Post by **tunaman** » Thu Nov 19, 2009 6:16 am

Yeah, I know...

It's all good though!!!

Anything you can work up, any time, would be great. I'll be there both days, and if you don't get to broach the subject at BAT I'll have to come follow you around to get a 'boat ramp lecture' like Walt did!

See you there - thanks Bill!

Roger

I was really bummed about being in Washington during your Bass-a-thon until you mentioned kb and stripper poles together.
