Joe Thomas is a great, classy guy. I fished against him all last year. At
Oneida I had gotten my limit of smallmouths & was in a weedy cove
desperately trying to get a kicker largemouth. In comes Joe & starts
fishing the same general area as me. It's late in the day (day1) &
downright nasty weatherwise. Joe & I get close & he asks me how I'm doing.
Told him I got the sm limit & was looking for a lm. He said that's what he
should have done, and that he went for the lm all day & only had 1 small
fish. The cool thing was that on day2 I went right to my sm spot & 5 min
later up pulls Joe. He had found the same fish as me! We both had pretty
good days on day 2. That was the only time in 3 tries I beat him in a
tourney. Class guy that Joe Thomas.

I have a confession. In my 20+ years of bass fishing I don't think
I've ever broke double digits alone. My best days are always around
6-7 bass.

On the other hand I've been watching a show called "Angler
on Tour" and this guy, who is a pro bass fisherman, is only catching 3
or 4 fish a day. What's up with that? Do I just suck or is everyone
exaggerating?

My record is 18 in about 4 hours on a small lake. Average weight about
2.5.

BTW, I really like Angler on Tour with Joe Thomas. I like it because he
seems honest. If he has a terrible day, you know it. I like to watch
fishing shows to learn technique, lures, presentation, etc., not to watch
some guy haul in one fish after another. Needless to say, the kind I like
are few and far between.

Anybody know how we get Joe to air a little earlier than 11 PM?
