Don Iovino said that the Motor Guides are great & that the MK's are
terrible, something about internal interference. Just thought I'd pass that on... Warren |

It was cool, I had a good time. I don't want to sound cocky (who? Me?),
but I was hoping that the pros would speak on a tad higher level, that meaning a bit more technical than they did. Gerald Swindle was good, though he could have skipped the comedy routine that took up about 25% of his lecture time. I wasn't there to laugh, I was there to learn. Tony Bean is a knowledgeable smallmouth guy from TN, in fact his home water is Percy Priest. Charles says he never heard of Mr Bean. Mark Menendez put on an excellent on jerk & crankbaits, in fact I'd say that I got the most out of his demonstration. I'm looking forward to applying his techniques for jerkbaits in the coming weeks. Sunday started out with Denny Brauer on pitching & flipping (at 7 am, yuk!). I was really hoping to get more out of Denny. He uses the same reels as I do, Daiwa TD-X baitcasters. Unfortunately, that's about all I got from Denny that I didn't already know. Man, I'd like a little 1-on-1 with that guy, he's one of my lifelong heroes. He did do one cool thing, after showing how to adjust a baitcaster properly, he went to one side of the room & told everyone to watch his thumb as he made a 30-ft pitch. He never touched the spool at all & no backlash whatsoever. Neat! Don Iovino did demos on finesse fishing & sonar use. He's a great guy, but I got nothing out of his presentations. As for Ken Cook, this guy shouldn't be at BMU. He put me to sleep not once, but twice. Reminded me of high-school level biology class. Sorry Ken, but I'd still like to fish with you. All-in-all it was a fun way to kill a cold weekend, but I won't be going back. I will say that for the amateurs in the audience it was probably very worthwhile.

I think so Charles. Mr Iovino seems to tell it like it is.

I just bought one, but haven't used it yet. I bought the Power Drive with universal transducer and wireless copilot. I'll post a report after I use it, if anyone is interested. |

Iovino said: They don't want me to say this, but it's the way it is.
