Default Got to Meet Some Pros (Pics

Hey guys, me and a bud went to the Bass Pro Spring Classic today and got to meet some awesome pros. They included Hank Parker, KVD, Chase Parsons, and Pete Mania, and they all signed my hat, took pictures with me and my bud, and were awesome enjoyable people to meet. The monkey also got me for $100... Here are the pics:

I went to BPS and the money got me? Isn't that like saying I went to the barber and my hair got cut. Or for us older and legal guys. Went to a bar and ended up with a beer.

I meet Fred Roubanis & Terry Scruggs Saturday. I really enjoyed my time listening to them. I would have loved Pete Mania to have came here.

Man that's great. Luke Clausen and Dave Wolak were at our BPS and talked about finesse and jig fishing. Both were very personable and passed on some real useful info.

YEP Mr Heavy Metal Muskey Man himself!!! The God Of Musky INC. tournaments. I would love to compete with him. Even if my but was handed to me on a silver platter. It would be worth the honor.

Yeah Pete Maina is a great guy. He was modest to say the least and was willing to stop right in the middle of the store to take a pic with me and sign my hat as well. Great Guy.
