As tired and wore out as I am I want to get this out asap as all is still fresh on the mind. First a huge THANK YOU to Rick Pierce, Kevin Short and all other Bass Cat reps and members that were there to treat us like family. 100% perfect experience up there with you guys and words on a board cannot do justice to the way we felt and how much gratitude we have for this company and the people behind it. Rick P did his job on making it a marathon tourney and keeping us thinking and hopping around to different places. Met allot of really good folks and saw some beautiful sites. For someone that has only been out of state fishing 1 time in 40yrs this trip meant allot to me. To have the owner of a company like Bass Cat help you unhook your boat and wish you well fishing in really cold weather speaks for itself. Thanks to Kevin Short for swapping my coat out. Got to catch a walleye and a smallie which I had never done. Got to see 4 beautiful lakes and caught fish on all 4. From the meet/greet supper to the organization of the tourney format to the last weighin/final day it was a BLAST and we truly left there feeling like we are part of a much bigger deal than a good tournament function. Did our best to rep the G.A.F and Louisiana. Will speak for Josh and say we love our Cats and now a deeper appreciation for whats behind the boat. Great time, great people, bad a## boats! Thanks again!

Couldnt have said t any better myself. After meeting Rick Pierce, Kevin Short, and all other BCB reps the first time we were on a first name basis. When Kevin came up to me as I was loading the boat and said, “Josh, yall catch em?” I was thinking this is awesome. Kevin Short knows my name and is wondering what I got LOL!! We had a blast! Everyone was great. Got to know a few great fisherman and swap stories and make new friends. Our weekend couldnt have went any better…besides maybe a 1.75lbs!!! LOL!

I would like to also thank everyone who made this tournament possible. It was truly a great experience and honor to fish for this trip. Congrats to Roger and Stan, I hung out with these two some and they are a trip!! Rick your sides will be busting, Roger is a RIOT. I had a great time and will do all I can to make it back next year and call it my redemption tournament. This format and clear water was a great challenge and I could not find that school of fish I thought would carry me to the Amazon. With that being said it was still a blast catching as many stripe, hybrids, white, and walleyes as we did on a jigging spoon as we did. Our weight do not show much but we did catch a slew of shorts the final day on techniques I can use in my arsenal here at home from time to time. If any of you guys ever make it to KY Lake give me a heads up and we can wet a line. Im looking forward to KABCOT and Bass fest and seeing some of you guys soon.Brad Kell

Sounds like every one had a blast. I havent called my guys from SEBCOG, the Wikoffs, as I was giving them time to get back home and settled.
