Let's do a little catching up, fished a LBL Div. BFL on April 16th. I drew a man from Ohio, a Retired Army Major and Vietnam Vet. It was a real honor to fish with him. For those of you who don't know, I am a Army/Desert Storm Vet. He told me he is 72 years old, and for 6 months during the war he was blind and completely paralyzed. He had jumped out of a helicopter into a hot landing zone. When his squad hit the ground they landed in a un-marked mine field. He was the only survivor. A true HERO !! I did catch 2 fish this day for some good points. It moved me up to 25th place in the standings. The wind did howl from the SSW with gust up to 30-35 mph. CONGRATS TO MY BUDDY AND FISHING PARTNER JOEL TROVILLION on his 1st place BFL finish with 18lbs 3oz.
On April 23rd, my partner Joel and I fished the 23rd Jet A Marina Classic on Ky Lake out of Ky Dam Marina. There was 312 boats in the field. Joel and I were able to catch 20lbs 14oz, good enough for 4th place and $1250. We caught our fish on crankbaits using POWELL Endurance and Max Series rods.
