Thanks Gil buddy, I feel much better now!

For the record, I'd never launch my boat in Boom Lake - my ego can be
broken, but not my Gambler.

WW ;-)


re...

Gambler 2200, 300 merc, 85 mph? Nice!

Dan, you're kidding, right? lmao...

No, I did not hit a thing with my boat or on plane with Jerry's boat.
Ya just got to know where to turn. :}

Warren old man, I navigated my boat and Jerry's boat all over and did
not hit a thing. You should be skilled enough to manage that. I
would love a ride in a Gambler, bring it on up.

The greatest reason for you to attend an rofb tournament is that you
can't
loose. You're bound to walk away (or fly, or drive...) with a huge
smile on
your face. I've never had so much fun getting skunked (yea, I know -

3x
on
the same lake...).

You'd think the odds would catch up with a guy that's made 10,000

casts,
pitches & flips into a lake where (at least a few) bass live,

wouldn't
you?
16 days I've spent on Boom's (semi-barren) waters. I've fished wood,
rock,
& weeds. I've fished shallow cover & deep structure. I've
drop-shotted,
Senko'ed, spinnerbaited, cranked, tubed & wormed. In thunder,
lightning,
wind, sun & rain.

I should be a Boom Lake expert by now. But instead I've been unable

to
land
a single keeper.

Will I go back yet again & try to put an end to this jinx, try to
conquer
Boom Lake's finicky bass & save face?




(scroll down)
















HELL NO! I'm whooped. I admit defeat. Hehehe.

Thanks as always to the Huber clan for being such gracious hosts. I

had
an
absolute blast as always.

Thanks to Harry Thundercat for spending 3 full days in the tin can

that
I
rented. I'm sure it would've been a bit better if I charged the
trolling
motor battery. Harry, by-the-way, landed keepers both days we

practiced
together. He flat-out ruled Boom when it didn't count. Nice job

T-cat!

Thanks to Chris Rennert for helping me drink all those White

Russians.
Chris is a great guy & a super fisherman.

Great meeting Dan the wildman too, and seeing all my rofb buddies

that
made
the trip.

Congrats to all who boated bass in this epic contest - especially my
good
friend Ronnie "Boom Lake" Garrison. I don't think Ronnie's ever

spent a
day
on Boom without catching a keeper, and I know he's spent more days

there
than myself.

It's super-great to hear that Randy's feeling better & out casting
again,
sorry he couldn't join us.

Special thanks also to all the non-attendees that predicted success

for
me
on this trip - you guys are truly nuts but I love you all!

As for Boom, well, that lake is pure evil.

It's good to be home.

Warren



"That evil Lake"

I know what it is Warren. The missing element is your boat. take it
next time to protect you from evil, dropshoting with smallie colors
will be the cure!

If I move to VA. by July of next year it would be an easier drive to
Boom's Northwood Classic, plus right next to Joe, Charles and "the
shadow"!
