Had to pull out of Crappie USA Classic

I was supposed to be at Old Hickory Lake with Justin (Finiman), my tournament partner, this week but had to pull out due to health concerns. Nothing serious, just complications from a procedure I had a couple of weeks ago. Mostly extremely painful and my Dr said no go. It stinks that I kept Justin from fishing it but we will be back stronger next year.

I want to thank each and every one who PMed, called or got hold of me with assistance.

Just think, though .... 2020 schedule has you on Green River Lake in late Oct for the Classic :Rofl

But, you'll have tourneys on KY&B in March and April & again in early Oct. The Grenada tourney is in JUNE :Doh:

Health first!! Without it you ain't nuthin' but a vegetable in a rocker.
You'll get 'em next year and I'm sure that's not the only tournament you fish.

Looks like its going to be a challenging tourney for the healthy ones, rain, 5 - 10 mph winds and highs in the mid 50's. Going to be tough...............

Thanks for the kind words and calls. I had a prostate biopsy a couple of weeks ago and with prayers answered,it was negative for cancer. A week later I started having pain and swelling in one of my private twins. When I called my Dr Monday, they had me in an ultrasound in an hour. It’s just a side effect but a painful one. With a course of antibiotics I should be fine but they put me off my feet as much as possible until swelling goes down. Goodbye CrappieUSA.

Sorry to hear about your health and hope you will be able to get back on your feet. From what i am seeing in news releases from the tournament, looks like there is a bad apple out of the mix and honest fisherman will have a fair shake.
