    Well, went to the show and ran into Jeff and many others from IDO. And whoever called Jeff stingy before should be ashamed of themselves Now let’s see if he shares some of the GPS coordinates for those walleye hotspots during the tourneys.

    Make it out Sat. WOW This show makes the others pale in comparison. The boats, gear, and people were everywhere. Wish I could have had time to look at all I wanted but with the kids weaving through traffic it was a challenge.

    I couldn’t find you guys. Even called on Jeff at the Fintech booth. The comment was “When us bass guys show up the walleye guys usually run away. Oh you are looking for the guy with the mustashe. He was here but ran away”

    Sounds like some fun guys to hand around with Jeff.

    Will be back next year.

    When is open water again?

    Wefish and I were talking about it at the ice outing in Racine. I’m thinking about doing it, but a little hesitant due to possible schedule conflicts with work, which sometimes come up short notice. sounds like a lot of fun and certainly some very good competition. Like I asked before, can we add carp and cats? That would be a slam-dunk for this guy.

    Z-Man now you want GPS cord go figure, I’ll think about it
    Sorry I missed most of you, I spent a lot of time Fri and Sat at the Kohl Center watching wrestling. My nephew took 4th in D3 at 189 so proud of him.
