Even the blind hog can talk a little smack when he finds an acorn.

This BLINDHOG fished TeamSeatrout tournament number 91 today. The only person to fish every SeaTrout tournament held.
The first 3 years was dominated by licensed guides such as, Randle Leger,Randy Peart,Tom Erle,Jerry Alexander,Hugh Lilliout,Ty Smith,Junior Dice,Vic Davis,Ashley Mock and several more.
Everyone fishing then and now did what they could to learn from these people while competing against them. Most of those people no longer fish TeamSeatrout. In their words "the competition has gotten too strong".
We have all become better fishermen because of TeamSeatrout.
I have seen the same results in NFGFC tournaments. NFGFC members have improved their fishing skills because of NFGFC tournaments.
Tournaments are not as much about competing and winning, as they are about learning.
Then, sooner or later,after competing and learning,you begin to win.
No matter what...you become better fishermen.
