Hey Mo,
The first time I fished with him , he skipped a jig about 60 feet. and said " go ahead now you do it" I damn near crapped myself. And this was backhanded. The biggest thing is getting over the fear. Tighten up and let it fly, it really works!!Backlashes happen. so they happen anyway at least you're reaching the fish!!!

MO - Frank has picked up the technique... Took him some time, but he's got it down. IT really give you an edge especially when you are fishing pressured water. If you would like to read something about the philosophy behind it, click on this link:

Brenden, you are so right, but it was definately a hard thing to do. It took alot of will power, but it will be worth it. Terry Scroggins, the winner whom I fished with on day 3 thanked me on stage. He is also friends with Peter Thilervos and Chris Daves (WOO Daves son). What goes around comes around, so hopefully when I am in the position to win one of these big events, my partner will not interfere. In order to win one of these events, EVERYTHING must go right. Terry won the tournament,and I helped him win by not competing with him on his fish. Unfortunately, I am out of the points race, whereas if i would have competed against him, I could still be in the hunt. It was a very, very, tough thing to do. But Im glad I made that choice. There are many anglers, both successful and unsuccessful on the trail who have given themselves a bad rap. That is something I dont want
