| < C'mon Chris, we need details! > I lost. :) Seriously, I had a great time, learned a lot, and look forward
to my next one. One of the biggets thinks I learned was NEVER to go into
something like that with new lures. When I was ordering my culling system
and a spooling station I ended up ordering new lures to try out.
Unfortunately, I never got a shot to get familiar with them due to my wife
coming home early. That really took a lot out of me because I had to get a
feel before I could even really ues them effecively. Damn BPS not carrying
Yammamoto's kreatures. :) I also had a reel failure on one of my cheaper reels that I was planning on
using crankbaits and spinners on. I haven't used the reel in so long and Id
idn't think to check it. Everytime I reeled it in you could hear it grind
so I didn't get full use of what I wanted to as I didn't want to spend a lot
of time retying(I felt like I spent too much time in the tacklebox as it
was). I realize now too I need to really put an effort in improving my casting. I
kept myself out of trees much more than when I started but I still wasn't
happy with the snags I did end up and my inability to land it right where I
wanted it to.. Right now - it's not looking like I'm going to be able to make the next
Delaware river tournament as a friend from Texas(the one who really got me
into bass fishing) is coming up and there's an open buddy tournament on
Union Lake we'd like to do. Anyway - I know this year my points are "meaningless"...but watch out next
year. I'm gonna start kickin' some ass..or at least not nearly fall off the
boat.. I'll get those weigh in pics to you shortly.. Christopher |
