A special thank you goes to all the BCB employees for committing to all the many tasks and extra-mile things required to put on a really great event. For all the extras involved in finding time to make those last-minute repairs and adjustments for the hundreds of owners all at the same time, thank you is quite insufficient. I want to personally thank Pete and Bobby for ensuring my trailer was serviced. Having service people ready, willing, and able to go to work at 4:00 am in the dark, is truly a commentary on the dedication and loyalty of employees of BassCat. Scott in particular volunteered to change out my circuit board operating the live-wells, lights, etc. – all I had to do was be there – so I could participate in the tourney without worrying about a problem. I was lucky enough to meet the Two Jerrys and Reed in the Teal Point boat dock, who offered any assistance I might need (other than where the biggest bass lived.) I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to speak to Kevin Short. The T-shirt ladies – Dori and ?? – are a delight and promised to work on finding XXXXL with pockets at a reasonable price. Got to chat briefly with Ron and Rick Pierce, which is always a pleasure.Those whove not had a chance to fish the Owners Invitational are missing a great experience and, hopefully, youll get there soon. Wishing the BCB an excellent 2012. Thanks for everything. Duane Walker
