:smt006 My name may not get mentioned but it was I that said we should fish the bars in front of the creeks and not the flats plus all fish that were caught were in the two places i recommended. Zero where you wanted to fish? :smt014

Bird Dog was the big dog the ringer stuff sucked I wouldn't want to shoot in a pool tourney with Wille or Minnesota either. As far as I am concerned BD won and would most likely give them hell if he showed up at one on their tournaments.

BD great to meet you, welcome to my house I fish Spring Warrior 95% of the time it is a great fishery if you can get the tide to let you get around the bars. There are a few on the other side of the warrior I'd love to show you.

Jeff glad you got the glasses couldn't think of anyone that deserves them more you add a lot to the forum. It was great meeting you and hope you good luck in the future. :smt006
Yesterday it was taboo today it is normal what the heck will they be doing tomorrow?

It was great meeting you too WAM. And I appreciate the kind words.

Reel Slow and I were extremely happy with the outcome of the tournament. Too finish sandwiched between Junior Dice, Steve Taylor, and Ashley Mock really means a lot to us. All 3 of them are top-fisherman. Fishing these club tournamets with Steve (and his brother Butch) really forces us to step up to another level and work hard to finish well. Having Junior and Ashley there just increased the level of competition and really made us bear down.

I have learned so much since I started fishing the NFGFC tournaments. I would encourage anyone who wants to become a better inshore fisherman to come and fish with us. :thumbup:
