Thread: Howdy Ya'll

Not sure if I'm posting this in the right place, wanted to take just a moment to introduce myself as I'm new to the forum. Name is Matt, I'm located between Claremore & Pryor, North of Hwy 20.

Santa brought me a brand new G3 Eagle 176 with a Yamaha 60HP 4-stroker, Minn-Kota trolling motor, and Garmin fish finder. :D Just a short note on this as I don't want to seem like a walking ad but Brad's Boat Sales here in Claremore is where I bought it and I gotta say the guys over there gave me one of the best buying experiences I've ever had! No pressure, easy to deal with, took all the time I required to explain everything about the boat and all the other gear, they were awesome from start to finish! Even took me to the Verdigris River & showed me everything I needed to know about launching, operating, and recovering which was great as this is the first boat I've ever owned.

I grew up in this area fishing Oologah and Grand but joined the military in 1983 and have not fished either since, but I'm gonna. Thought there might be someone here that wouldn't mind getting out on the lake & showing me around sometime. I've got lots of time on my hands right now and can fish just about any day of the week. My wife is a cold weather weenie, she won't go I suppose.

CrappieGuru if you read this get in touch!! I entered all the 2010 brush pile coordinates at Oologah into my GPS this morning, I use an iPhone app called MotionGPS which works great for navigating to waypoints, so I think I'm about ready to roll..... look out fish!
