2nd place looks like a lock. Good work!

Just think.......in a short time from now........we'll be going to the Fred Hall's Fishing/Tackle show and........signing up for the "How to use your Lowrance electronics class by Kevin Stewart" Kev, I'll be the first to sign up. Good work dude. We'll celebrate up at Clear Lake next month ...

I heard there was a FLW permit approved for Havasu in early 2012. Probably around late January or February sometime. That's all I know at this point.....just rumorville right now. Most likely an Everstart event. We'll see..

TXRIGGED

I've fished with Zaldain. I'm friends with J Lucas. I'm rootin' for both of 'em. Certainly Lee has the talent, Ehrler is proven, and Meyer doesn't need another 2nd, and if he finishes in the top 10 again, he deserves to be considered one of the best summertime fisherman ever. Sounds like the bite is...

Smitty, Ernie Stumpf here from Las Vegas (Henderson), NV. On the subject of Bill Cook, I was way impressed with his work at the US Open. Dude ran a smooth event, everything was on time and quick (especially in the heat). Regarding Frisco, TX, I'll probably be relocating there in the near future. My ...

Check out a 703 CB Glass. It's affordable, lightweight, and pretty good for throwing a ripbait on 10 - 12 lb test.

TXRIGGED

I was really impressed with the weigh-in process also. Pulling the boat onto my trailer and being greeted by that dude handing me the mesh bag. Can't remember his name, but he greeted me each day with a smile and a "well, did you get 'em today?" The weigh in was fast. Pretty cool pulling u...

That is funny! I'm worried about going to the front of the boat. I'm never gonna have fully charged batteries on multiple day events. I'm gonna have to strap a generator to the top of my car and get some charging in during those precious hours of taking in social libations. Spoke with MG, and it loo...

Yo, Andy....great job filling in dude!! But let's be real here. Behind every successful man there's a woman who knows what the heck is going on. Gotta give props out to Glenda too. You two are great. Thanks! See you two soon.

We might be heading that way if the weather report is true. Says it's gonna blow hard on Saturday at Mead. Chad and I might be up for donating some $$. Clint says "no flip flops on his boat" for this derby. I'm chillin' in my hotel room in so-cal, might have to stop in Angler's tomorrow an...

I like the idea of having it on Sunday April 3rd, following the April 2nd derby. I do NOT like Sunday April 17th, as I will be out of town for business. But, Saturday April 16th will work for me. Cory, from your note, I thought you were limited to only July and August, but then discussions of April ...

I was just in there this evening. Besides the repos, I was awestruck by a red and white Z521 (2010 model) with every bell and whistle imaginable. HDS10 on the front deck, HDS8 in the cockpit dash, two powerpoles, rod holder for the co-angler that looks like a scoop on a Nascar, new Atlas jackplate, ...

TXRIGGED

Thinking of heading to the delta soon for some fun fishing. I know I want to throw some skinny dippers, and there are too many good colors to chose from. Can anyone give me some good advice on a few? Thanks all!

TXRIGGED

Just curious if anyone knows how they did out there today. It was windy in town, the lake must have been rough out there!

TXRIGGED

Do you still have this reel?

TXRIGGED

I did a full blown power ranking of all deep cycle batteries a few years ago. I listed 'em all (Trojan, Optima, Everstarts, Interstate, etc). Then I compiled all their information (weight, cost, CCA, MCA, Reserve Capacity, etc). After listing all their statistics, I ranked 'em all according to weigh...

ABA was on Saturday, WON Bass was on Sunday. DeeJay Evans and Don Hill took first with 11.46 and Pat & Bobby took 2nd with 10.71, then it dropped off a bit from there. 3rd Place had 7.77.

TXRIGGED

Little over 10lbs won it. We had 2nd Place with 3 fish for 7.06 lbs. 9 boats. Tuff bite!

TXRIGGED

Great work Egan! I'm looking forward to this upcoming season. I still haven't installed that HDS7 yet. Merry Fishmas! (Bailey, I'm quotin' ya).

TXRIGGED

I don't think they're doing it that way this year. After last year at Roosevelt, I think FLW is simply taking Pro's and Co's separately, so Co's should just sign up and get on the waiting list. I know they are taking a strong approach at making sure the priority registrants get first crack at gettin...

One difference involves the qualification into the Forrest Wood Cup. Although this changes slightly each year, they'll take the Top30 Tour anglers, the Top10 Series East anglers, the Top10 Series West anglers, the Top1 AFS (Stren) angler from each Region. Entry fees from the Tour and the Series were...

Try the Railroad Pass Casino or the Hacienda Hotel & Casino. Regarding the Hacienda, you can cut through the park entrance near Hemmingway Harbor to get to Callville. The Railroad Pass is real close to where the 93 and 95 highways meet. From there, I'd just take 95 N to the 215 E to go to the la...

I was pre-fishing out there today, lots of little rats, few keepers. I did hook into a 250HrsPwr motor while fishing deep in the narrows. It fought like a sun-of-a-gun. J/K. Tighten up them bolts GG! Drive safe, see you at the pairing meeting.

Billy,
Many thanks for the reply. I'm sure you're pullin' your hair out trying to coordinate this with such short time, but I know you'll pull it off. If there's anything I can do to help, don't hesitate. You've got my #.

BTW, you can bet I'll be in on those options.

Any word on this event?

TXRIGGED

KevinBud! Good work my friend. Are you coming to Mead?? Fishing's tough over at 3lb point right now. Talk to you soon bud.

TXRIGGED

Any word on how many boats?

I'm pullin' for the Goodwins!

TXRIGGED

20.05 lbs

Thanks Billy!! Consider me "all in" on the options........at least for Bib Bass!!! Take 'er easy!

Should be posted in the upcoming BASS edition included in your Western Outdoor News paper. Keep your eyes peeled.

TXRIGGED

I like the 7 (or even 10) fish rule for consideration.

TXRIGGED

That's code for "if you fish one more tournament this year................blah blah blah"

My wife let's me have it and I'm just a limp stick.

Just jokin' here.

TXRIGGED

Team Changes: I kinda like the idea of making changes with regards to having your partner with you at WON. But, I hope they allow the single to fish, but change the fish count to the legal limit. So, a team on the water could bring 10 fish to the scales, and if you fish by yourself without your team...

TXRIGGED

Sometimes, while traveling I've found that my cheep 50 foot chord charges my batteries slower than one of my other heavier gauged 50 foot chords. I may be imagining it, but I swear that heavier chord gets it done a little quicker. I agree with the slow charge, and that's great when you plug in your ...

With all the happenin's at FLW, I doubt he'll get anything from them. However, I hope he gets some good recognition and opportunities for more sponsorship. At least they should do a good story on his season and accomplishment. Or, bust out with a plaque or trophy. They sure gave Stetson Blaylock goo...

TXRIGGED

Even if they don't have solid evidence to prove him guilty, his reputation still will be severely tarnished. Maybe he had so much going for him due to a cheap price on lead weights.

TXRIGGED

I was just gonna ask about legal ramifications. Just add up the money he won in WON Bass So-Cal Region events this year. That money is probably already spent, but I wonder if WON Bass could go after that money. I'd say if he has to repay that amount, it gets evenly distributed amongst the anglers by...

TXRIGGED

He could've shoved the weights in while the co-angler was up getting his truck/trailer. But seriously, how many weights was he jammin' in 'em? If it's true, and he did it with the co-angler present, I hope the co-angler fesses up and there leaves no room for speculation, just fact.

TXRIGGED

So I'm over at the pairing meeting with my buddy .......... wishin I was in the derby .......... but baby duty called this week ............. and I'm chattin' with KJ and he tells me about all the boat troubles he'd been having, but how happy he was to be doin' a little gamblin'. Whatever happens, h...

I own a pair of Maui Jim "Offshore" glasses, and they're pretty good. One thing I like about 'em is that they wrap around my skull real good and when I'm doing 65 across Lake Mead, I can look behind me and not even worry about 'em flyin' off. The one thing I don't like about 'em is they ke...

I've been checking www.weather.com and putting in "Laughlin, NV." Friday calls for 98F and 22mph winds Saturday calls for 84F and 17mph winds Either way, it'll be ugly in that bowl. And remember Pro's, let's consider the AAA's safety first. They don't like to get that wet! J/K. Hope it tur...

And remember, throw in a "ralley dip" when the bite is tough.

I wanted to give a shot out for my boy #5. When you click on FLW - Bass - Western Division Series.................there's his name in the point standings. Ehrler, Zaldain, Meyer, Reese, and then there's Stewart. Kevin..........you are among some great company on that board. See.....Mead wasn't soo b...

Thanks everyone for posting your thoughts. I've looked at the eye surrender, and every other brand, and finally found the right pair that fits my big melon and looks pretty cool. I will go with the poly lens. It's $50 less than the glass, noticeably lighter in weight, and I'll risk the scratches. As...

I was curious so I thought I'd send out a blast and see your opinions. I'm looking at buying some new polarized sunglasses. I've got some good ones now (Maui Jim), but I'm liking the Costa Del Mar PERMIT sunglasses. BPS has two pair in stock. One pair has a glass lens and has that blueish color to t...

I sent you a PM. I'm already confirmed as a Co, but I have someone that needs you. Thanks!
