Bob: With all of this star power discussion going on it is sorta hard to remember there is also a fishing tournament going on.

Any news on how they are doing, who is leading, big fish, etc. If the weather reports hold true it could be a rough weekend.

I just got done watching classic video on ESPN 2 of Ray Scott and a bunch of great bass fishermen flying to Las Vegas, as Ray announces to everybody what the "secret" lake is that they're going to fish for the first "Bassmaster Classic".

I saw that, too, this morning. You should hear Ray tell the story. I also heard the story from one of the writers on the trip, John Thompson. Ray tells about Poolie, one of the cogs in B.A.S.S. for years, (who worked for Ray)getting the fleet of boats on site under the cover of darkness. Seems Poolie took a somewhat circuitous route. Poolie was the only one who knew where he was going and the other guys following him had no idea. They just knew they were pulling boats to the first Classic. It was a huge secret. Amazingly, the secret was kept. Ray had all the anglers incarcerated on one chartered plane. He also had the foresight to bring along all the key writers to cover the event. It was 1971. I was a sophomore in high school.

Debbie just strolled by, said to say "hello" to everyone. I'll check back in later.

Bob, I just saw that Scott Rook was leading the Classic for a while yesterday throwing a shad colored Shad Rap parallel to the shoreline.

Sound familiar? \:\)

I love it! This show has been so busy, I haven't had time to post. Got some great photos to share, though. I'll try to put them on my blog tonight. Got a great shot of Forrest L. Wood with Ray Scott. We'll be in touch.

Hey is there a guy in the running by the name of Jed Culler? He's a good customer of mine and from my neck of the woods. He won an expensive bass boat a few years ago.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

Huzzah for Waco!
