This time of the year we have a 10 or 12 wk long series of Working Man's Tournaments on Thurs. evenings. 5:30-8:30 pm. Fished yesterday's TX with my 22yr old son. Can't remember ever doing so poorly in a local bass TX. Did not weigh a fish-We were one of apparently very few 0's. In retrospect-----
Gas-$50....Entry Fee-$50....Dick's SP. Goods-$50....Fishing TX with my son....PRICELESS!!
Time and $$$ well spent.

A man's gotta believe in something; I believe I'll go fishing.

I can't agree with you more....I love fishing but when you throw in good friends or family it is priceless. Oh the memories.....I can still see us setting in a old jon boat on the Sabine up in Panola county catching those slab crappie.......hope my kids and grandkids have those memories when the reach my age...........
THANKS FOR THE NICE POST.......THAT'S WHAT WE BUILD THOSE RODS FOR IS TO FISH.......

I've been waiting for them to start up again this year IN NC on the Yadkin river system was hoping that’s what you guys were referring to.
