Tournament Results, and Kid Stuff

I fished a tournament last Saturday at Lake Brownwood. As predicted, it was cold, and the fishing was tough. I ended up catching a 5 pound drum, but also a 3.58 pound bass and one short bass. Three bites in 8 hours, now that's some fast action. My fish was enough to put me in probably 5th or 6th place. 12 or 15 guys out of 39 had a fish, and 1o pounds won. There were three fish over 6 pounds, but most guys just weighed in one fish at 2 pounds or so.

Jonathan's been on a "probably" kick. The other day he brought home a picture from school that looked like he had gone around and around in circles with a purple marker. I asked him what his picture was, and he said, "Probably just purple circles."

A couple of days later, Shana was at home with the boys and realized she hadn't seen or heard Jonathan in a while. When she found him, he looked like this:

When she asked him what he was doing, his reply was, "Probably just shaving."

What a mess :)

At least we're all well.

New Links

I added a new link on the sidebar to the Academy Sports and Outdoors television show. We've got Chad Brauer on our pro staff, and we've produced a line of shows for about the past year. They show on the Outdoor Channel, which I don't have. The cool thing is that the older shows are available commercial free to watch on the Academy website that I linked to. As far as fishing shows go, these are typical. They lack a few things I'd like to see, but they're much better than some of the stuff out there. If you have high speed internet, give them a look.

Also, Fantasy Fishing kicks off next week. There's a link to that as well. If anyone reading this is interested enough in fantasy fishing to play, let me know and maybe we can start a little group, so I can beat you :)

I also joined a local bass club, Stillwaters. It's a "Christian" club, which mostly means that we have a devo at every meeting/tournament, and we don't support misbehaving during tournaments. The first tourney is Saturday at Lake Brownwood. It's supposed to be wicked cold, like 25 in the morning getting to 45 in the afternoon. Never been to Brownwood, and the fishing should be tough. Might just take one bite to get in the money. My goal for the year is to bring home money in two tournaments, enough to break even on my entry fees. I added a link to Stillwaters on the sidebar as well. If you're a local and want to join, give me a holler, or check out their website.
