sent into the ether: ...best bass trip of 2004. Everyone? Happy & Healthy Holidays to You All! This summer I took my 4 year old grandson Alex out in the boat fishing for the first time. He had never been fishing or in a boat in the water. You have to understand this is the kid that picks up sticks and when you ask him what he is doing he answers fishing! I have described it here before so I will spare you all but the answer he had when, after 2 hours or so, I asked if he wanted to leave. He looked up at me and said in a dead serious voice, Just one more grandpa, can I catch just one more? Needless to say he spent 5 plus hours catching Bluegills, Perch, Crappies and some nice 1 1/2 to 2 pound Bass. Second was the Classic here this summer. Great guys, great boats, great time!!! Good health, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all. BTW, at Thanksgiving dinner I was mistaken by a 2 1/2 year old for Santa. HO HO HO Remove the x for e-mail reply www.outdoorfrontiers.com |

Happy & Healthy Holidays to You All! -- I only got out three times this season because of a torn calf muscle early in the year but all three of those were my best trips. They made me realize that fishing is much more than just fishing to me. It is therapy. It is the best way I know of to just let the weight of everyday responsibilities disappear. It is an escape from the day to day pressures where all that matters to me is the stillness of the water and the beauty of the surroundings. It is a way to get in touch with my inner self and make peace with whatever is not right in my world at that given time. The most important thing it taught me was that I will never be without fishing in my life until the day they pry my cold dead hand from the rod and reel. Good fishing all, Phil |

I decided to try another pad bed and on the way threw the jig next to a little stick-up and caught a 6.5 lb bass. Big bass for a shallow 57 acre pond. Richard g www.bassstalkers.com |

My best trip of the year was probably the outing in Georgia I got to
share with Ronnie Garrison, on West Point. We didn't catch a whole lot, but it sure was nice getting out on a lake in March, and catching a couple decent fish! In Indiana, I'm lucky to catch a fish in March. It was nice to be able to get out on a lake that you always hear a lot about...especially with someone who knows a thing or two about the lake! It was also nice getting a chance to meet someone from the group... Maybe we can get together again this coming March, Ronnie? I hope to be making another trip down to see the grandson, and plan on having a boat with me this time! -- Andrew Kidd "go-bassn" wrote in message ... ...best bass trip of 2004. Everyone?

Slow time at work, nice day for January, and the boss takes me and another coworker to a 30 acre private lake where we tore 'em up for a few hours. Friend Bobby had big bass at 9lb. 5oz. pic he http://www.myfishingpictures.com/img/027490.JPG |
