BPS crappie madness seminars

Olathe BPS will have Cory Batterson from Iowa doing seminars at 7pm on Feb. 5th and again at 11am and 2pm on Feb 6th. Cory is a great guy and one of the best in the business at trolling with planer boards for crappie. He's a pretty good one pole dipper also.

Kevin Rogers will be doing seminars at the same times as Cory but at the Independence BPS. As many of you know he has a whole different approach to fishing than most. He puts on a great and very informative seminar that will be mostly about tactics used on Truman.

I plan on going to see my buddy Cory early on Saturday morning and then watch his seminar. Then head over to see Kevin at 2. Looks like some good sales going on for the sale/show.

bump

I had such a bad case of cabin fever. I showed up last Saturday. :confused: :Rofl

Getting closer DFAR.

One more bump for what will be two informative seminars. If anyone is into or wanting to get into trolling planer boards Cory is one of the best in the country at doing it. Then you can go to see Kevin and have him talk you out of trolling during his seminar. We should be at Olathe BPS around 10:30 and will head east to heckle Kevin after Cory is done.

St. Charles BassPro will have Kevin Jones and Billy Surface this evening and tomorrow and next week last year's champs Kyle Schoenherr and Rodney Neuhaus. Both groups are good guys with a lot of local knowledge.

Those will be some great seminars. 4 great guys and very knowledgable anglers. Wish I was closer.

Plan to go see Kevin tonight. Is anybody planning to go?

About to go see Kevin at 7

Going to Olathe this morning to see if this is the right weekend............:biggrin

You got it right this time. Good talking to you and the wife. Was a good turn out at both seminars.

I got to the independence bps for the 7 seminar but my kid wanted to run around the store. So didnt get to hear much.

Enjoyed the seminar and was good to chat with you and Mike.

Went to the Independence seminar today at the 11:00 session- Roscoe Van (something). I believe he was a BPS employee and went over he basics of spider rigging. I learned a couple things and a couple things were brought up that were food for thought, but there were several newbies that asked things like "what's a palomar knot" . I've spoken in front of crowds before, so I'm a pretty tough judge and the guy did a decent job for the folks- pretty full room. One thing he should keep in mind- don't use the term "spider rig rod" when talking about the rod holder frame components (Driftmaster), and the transducer sonar "angle" isn't interchangeable with the term "frequency", although they inter-relate to each other.
