That boy just knows how to do it!! Home boy is going to make it and it is awesome to see small town people doing good :ThumbsUp
Funny you posted this Tim. When I saw the title I just knew it was about crappiebuster. Congratulations on a big win this weekend Derek. You and your partner have had one heck of a season
Thanks Blaine! It was a great season for us. Seems like everything went our way when we needed it. I know there's a certain skill level required to compete in tournaments, but I swear competing and winning has got to be 75% luck! It's all about being in the right place at the right time and getting the right fish to bite. Somehow, we were fortunate that it happend a bunch for us this year!
Tim, I heard Casey Ashley's song a few years back and it's one of my favorites. I made a little dock shooting video I put on youtube years ago and I used that song in it! I love the words of it.
Congrats on the big win Derrick, I fully believe as you stated,that tournaments are 50% luck, 50% skill. Tou need the knowledge to select the proper technique, you must be able to find/locate fish. That's the skill part, having the bigger fish bite your baits when fishing in a crowd, pulling up and starting to fish and hitting the mother lode when lost in the fog, having a good fish fall off the hook into the net all fall under the luck part. Of coarse there are many more scenaios, but these are s few that have happened to me.
Casey can sing and catch them too, like yall glad to see a small town, local boy doing good. If you can find it, he has a CD out that is really good. I thought you was talking about Derek as well. Congrats on the win the Saturday, heck of a stringer and heck of a year. The Part Timer's (band Derek is in) is pretty dang good too.
Ink, any update on that new boat.
Good to hear the update on the boat Ink! Fish are starting to run and hide as we speak!
Glad to hear your new boat is coming in. I know you will be glad to get it home and finish rigging it. I got a new to me sitting under the shed that I am anxious to try just waiting on Dr's orders.
Tim, glad to hear good news about your boat. The 4th will be here before you know it. Are you going to go ahead and let them put your DF and TM on for you? Or are you going to do that yourself?
I have two Lowrance Elite 7's, Minn Kota auto pilot, 4 SpyderLok rod racks, on board charger, and seats all sitting here waiting to be installed, all I need is a boat to put them on. They need to hurry before I mess around and buy more stuff for a boat I don't even have yet. lol
