Potholes Club tourney - May 1994 first time ever in a tourney, first time ever in my own boat.  Fished three huts the whole weekend and won with 27+ pounds.  Next year, same time, same pond, boated ONE fish the entire week-end and my career has been a model of inconsistency ever since.  Hey, I work very hard at those skills.  I would hate to start winning every event.  People would start not showing up and not liking me too much.  Some might even stoop to hiding banana's in my boat.  I can't imagine anybody ever doing such a low, dispicable act, but I have heard that desperation is a funny emotion.  I hope that never happens to me.

Now that's funny!, I don't care who you are!! Connie had the idea of Western Bass awarding a golden banana award at the end of the year for the lowest weight of the person who fished all the points tourneys.

i know troy it is. my main boat motor is in 2 pieces right now. i think the water pump is going out. going to the weigh-in last weekend with 11+ pounds in the boat on sunday, the horn went off again! i knew i was in the money, but never though first place.
