well....., let's just say that I did not consult with the young, pregnant, Amish girl, working at the local general store like I did with the Steelers taking it all the way! No No No..... But I would like to see a fish off between Bruce and Nate! Both are my favorites. Nate reminds me of my nephew Dave, and I am super proud of him! So, we will have to wait.....

Nate and I have clashed in the fishing arena before.
He is a formidable competitor.

He is a formidable competitor. That Bruce, is Exactly what makes it Perfect! I love both of you guys and think it would be an awesome event! Forum Heroes battling it out! Hopefully on video, so a narrator needs not be hired. I hope/dont hope you did not/did, or thought you did see or saw the subliminal message in the post. Go Nate Go!!!

If n8ly reminds you of your nephew, who does Brucille remind you of?
Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:" "She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."

Bruce, If I go down, I will make sure to take you down with me.... Anyhow, you may have the upper edge on a bass tournament, but you would fall fast if we were having a big bluegill tournament!! My good friend owns a big bluegill website that I occasionally post pictures onto! Let me take that back, your going down in the bass tournament too!!!

My prediction is that my team will bring in 11.50 lbs of various species of bass and come in second place to some lurking forum reader who will jump onto the scene with a blockbuster fishing tournament win! Bruce will bring in 7.35 lbs of spotted bass and finish somewhere in the middle. Grimes is good for 2 fish (both barely legal largemouths) so it all depends on who he gets partnered with on where he is gonna place!

If n8ly reminds you of your nephew, who does Brucille remind you of? He/She/It, needs love also, but I had to activate parental controls so my Dog wont be surfing while I am sleeping Those three clicks with her toe in the morning wakes me right up. I sure wish she did not have Cancer, but cant do anything about it right now. Neither can the vet's!

Any bass will do~ as long as it is alive and it meets the measurements. Table Rock Lake has Big Mouth, Small Mouth, White and Spotted Bass. If memory serves me right, though, everyone caught small mouth last time, right?

Lots of smallmouths, but some spots and largies mixed in. Grimes will catch everything but smallies......

Whoever gets Buster Love for a guide should have a big advantage...I think it was Nate that left behind a bunch of Porcupine Fish Attractors, like 20 of them. Big Cedar called me asking what to do with them and I gave them to Buster and Stacey King to create some secret Honey Holes for bass.

Ok hope to catch a small mouth and Bruce there was one caught last year but yes spots galore. Speaking of spots- here is some smack talk for you Nate. My Dad was probably the best spotted bass fisherman in the country- that part is not debatable. I would think some of his expertise rubbed off on me while growing up fishing Lanier again one of the best spotted bass fisheries anywhere. We could catch em when others struggled to get a bite. So while my goals would be to catch a smallie I would take home a first place trophy as consulation prize.
