Thanks Ed (Slab).
My wife and I missed an opportunity to meet and shake hands with you at the first day weigh in at the Crappie Masters Tournament in Deland. The weightmaster and emcee introduced you and spoke of your website. It was good that he did because I came home and found the website and joined. I have been surf fishing mostly but this past year my interest in speck fishing is really growing. I was there to watch and learn so I skulked around some of the boats that were coming in because I wanted to see rigs, equipment, etc. I did speak with Mike Valentine (spelling) from Crappie Masters but he did not look like he does on television. He had a full beard. ha.
