Ya know Warren, KVD is resilient, and he will recover eventually, A little
TLC and he will be fired up for the B.A.S.S tour.

Haha, for things like that to be true, it would be nice :-D. One day
hopefully.

Warren,

Congratulations man, I did not fish the tournament this weekend. My boat
is
still not running right, plus my partner from Kalamazoo would have had to
drive down very early Sunday morning, (like 1 or 2 am ) and then turn
around
and drive home right after the tourney and then work at 7am Monday
morning.
Plus money was tighter than anticipated because of my boat repairs, so I
just took my wife fishing Saturday and fished by myself in the morning on
Sunday (really just to torture myself with seeing the boats go by). I
Posted pictures from Saturday and Sunday on ABPF.
Again congratulations!

Thanks Chris, it was an interesting one. More like Ivan vs Tri-State
Bassmasters, since I never actually made a cast into the Hudson proper.

I actually threw in my 2 cents at the ramp on Saturday morning that I
was
all up for at least delaying Day 1. After all, rain was blowing
sideways,
winds were blowing a stead 25-30, gusting up to 45 or so. There were 4
footers crashing the planned ramp on the main river, so launching there
was
out of the question. We decided to launch in Rondout Creek.

2nd worst weather I ever fished in, only to the Oneida BASS Open last
year.
I actually ran down to the wrecks RichZ turned me on to, but never
bothered
fropping my trolling motor. It was worse than "snotty".

To make a long story short I caught 3 fish on Saturday, including a 4-2
LM
and a rat SM & a rat LM. I was leading by about 1.5# or something
after
Saturday & only 5 guys had fish. Sunday morning it was blowing so hard
that
they called it off. Being in 1st place & holding lunker I didn't
object;
I
was home at 11 am & took my daughter out. The day here was awesome.

So the Boom Lake jinx is off, at least for now. Hope you fished that
tourney!

Warren
