Here I thought.....I was the only fisherman who dared to show himself in a minivan. Yet today at the Wallyworld on Thomasville across from Killearn there it was....a silver Honda Odyssey with a bigbendfishing.net window sticker. :thumbup:

Howdy fellow van driving BBF and fishing enthusiast :smt006

It's OK, Mr. Flats. Several folks on this forum have things they don't want others to know. However, there is help. I'll be glad to take you under my wing. I've helped several people on this forum. For example, when I first met Chalk, he was driving an immitation truck, using a "family owned" boat, and fishing with Ambassadeur reels. Just look where he is today.

Let me know if you want my assistance. I assure you there is no one better at spending other peoples' money. :-D


Oh, the van belongs to Tom's wife. :wink:

If it aint broke don't fix it.

I have found they cast good left or right handed. My right shoulder started hurting a few years ago, So I throw sometimes with my left. Maybe it will heal when my left shoulder starts hurting. :thumbup:
