Pete,
I know I am a little late and it may seem that all the liars and cheaters come out on top, they do not!! Being honest and good is its own reward!! When people cheat they cheat themselves!! Good Bassin Dan Bass

OK,

I'm late as usual... What's this about paints comming off? (Kidding)

Pete... I am a member of L.I.B and Suffolk County Bassmasters and I'm sure we will run into each other. I try to make it to most of their tournaments. As for fishing together sometime, I'm usually booked solid until the fall. So, we may have to do a trip around October. I'm always looking for an excuse to get out of the office.

MMT - Good to see you back around... I agree with you about that All Island AssMasters thing... I had a guy call up last week telling me that they have to hold up the fish out of water until someone can come over and take down their number. He also said he and his partner started throwing fish back because it was taking them 5 - 10 minutes to get over to each person. Who comes up with these insane concepts?

I know you are all for the preservation of our waters, so I figured I'd share that tid-bit of info with you.

Everyone Else - If you want to help preserve the sport of tournament bass fishing and help save the lives of fish, "NOT" fishing in these tournaments would be a good start. Join a local bass club and you'll have plenty of tournaments to fish and they are run in a professional manor...

Fish Hard!

Bren, my club had a tourny on Upper Mills a few weeks back and this guy comes up to my partner and me and tells us he entered the All Island event held on Upper Mills several weeks ago, He then says that Rick Clunn was there fishing it. The killer was his three fish bag of 18lbs that he had to keep on a stringer because he was wading......I believe the format they have is lacking as far as keeping fish alive....but a stringer?? Anyway, we won with 10.50lbs and when I took my 4.43 lber out of the well he said he never saw a bigger fish and estimated it at 11lbs. I wish people would just refrain from speaking at times!!! The site looks really good, congrats on the success.

MMT- I think maybe Clunn is a little too smart (and wealthy) to fall for any pitch coming from Brother Romeo. I'd think the Rick Clunn guy is anyone but. He's probably sponsored by WorldCom. lol

Again Pete, safe and enjoyable trip to my home state. Talk with you soon. JoeMo
