BD, GG, Dr.DW, thanks.

I would have to describe the whole thing as "kind of cool" also.

Once I had read the recent issue of Pond Boss, I just looked forward to meeting Lusk. After all, he's the main reason we all have this great forum.

When I learned of this opportunity for providing the fish for the aquarium, I was very excited. Many times I would ask myself why I was going through the effort; I still can't really answer that question except to say that I would do it again.

I feel the most satisfaction for the good things this has done for my fish supplier. While he is so thankful for my help and support in the effort (unnecessarily though), I simply wouldn't have those fish if it was not for his ongoing efforts.

At the end of the tourny, a "higher up" in ESPN asked him how far he would drive saying that the next Bassmaster Classic is in Kissimme [sic] in Feb. '06.

I'm happy to say that I just returned from putting the fish back in my pond, along with some new residents. No mortality.

Thanks everyone for watching.
