Hey just wanted to say Hi to everyone. Sure miss being a diehard member of the club and events. life takes paths sometimes and things change. This new job sure has cut into my fishing time with the weekend work and traveling. Oh well. First year I haven't made a tournament in a long time. Miss the cold, early morning blast offs and weigh-ins. Congrats to the winners this year. I heard fishing has been tough with the weird weather at times. Anyhow, Hope to see some of you out on the water.

Rob,

Yes we miss those jokes, laughs, etc. Was asking maderos the other day if he had heard from you. Hope all is well. Congrats on the house.

Mini Maggs what's up? Still have the same cell number?

Hey Rob
Where abouts are you at now days.

Well I have moved to Orting so still in the general area. Like Russ said, I just travel a lot now with this new job. I also get stuck working weekends often because thats when the food plants are usually shut down (of course they aren't going to shut down during the week and then work the weekends when we are done). This is what has really stopped the tournaments for me. AND IT SUCKS!!!

What to do though? Hard time to look for new work. Pay is good. I just miss my bassin buds. My cell has changed and anyone needing it, cut me a PM. I am looking forward to getting to some meetings as I have my Thursdays free again, and next years tournament schedule so I can try to make a few. I got out some this year and stuck some fish but nothing major. The guys from work were amazed when I "called my shot." I picked up my spinnerbait and made one cast on a spot I told him would probably hold a fish and BAM!, three pounder. They also thought polarized glasses were cool too when they could see the bass beddin. Anyhow, hope to see y'all soon.
