MSBA Seminar
 

Well, as some of you have seen...after posting some pics of the ditch Patric asked me for a favor. I guess someone backed out from the seminar list, and he asked if I would speak on fishing the canal. I know how touchy of a subject this can be which really tore me up on helping a friend. Well as you all know, I just dont have the hart to let someone down when there are so many looking forward to the seminars at these events...lol.......So I will be doing a seminar on the ditch in a bulletproof vest and skee mask of corse from the dark corner of the room and a voice recognition device..lol. Now before some of you biggin to riot. Here me out....This is not going to be a spot burning seminar with pole numbers and rips, but more of an itroduction to a place that is growing emensly in popularity......I myself am no expert in the ditch or or any kind of fishing, but I have spent enough time there to learn that ediquet gets you further then ignorence. My only problem when fishing the ditch is when someone comes down and wants to move in on my drift and not play nice. But then again lots of those anglers have no clue on how to play with others in the ditch. I have had days standing 5 feet from 10 guys in a blitz and have it all go smooth with loads of laughs and great times and many fish...But for those that have never fished the canal they have no where to start so they end up 5 feet from you throwing a chunk or a jig while your trying to plug...The basis of my seminar will be on this ediquet and how the place works( which is still a mystery to me) The gear, loading plugs, and setting up a bike. There is 14miles of shore line im sure we can all get along...The techniques I will be talking about are some that have worked for me and thats it...I love this place, its got a good hold on me and just when I think I can go freshwater fishing again...It pulls me back in..lol.........If you enjoyed the pics I posted, then you will enjoy the seminar...it's basicly the same thing with some stories behind them.....plus what else can you expect from a guy who swam over in a truck tube from Cuba. Hope to see some of you there and Thanks

That would be "Nipple-tastic"!:uhuh:

We need demo models not Roy

Roy, don't tell the nipple story, please.


Then again some guys here might not have read or heard about it.

Roy's talk was very interesting, he only burnt Larry's spots!

He didn't talk about the nipple cream stations in the parking lots along the canal did he?

No mention of creme of any variety..........

Did you check out the spray bunker oil that dude had?

$10 bottle at #^&#^&#^&#^&'s! Shake well before spraying.......

cool, that way I can pretend I went fishin,

For real?

One memory permanently ingrained is the look on the faces of three Cubans I picked up in the middle of the ocean. They had been to sea a loooong time on a Russian tractor inner tube... boy were they happy to see us:gh:

I got a story about nipple cream at the pub Saturday night.

Haven't been able to sleep since he told me.....:smash:

Fun weekend great to see all my friends...

Everytime Roy sees Larry he screams across whatever body of water it is in between the two of them.. Nobody realizes it is Roy screaming, but whenever anyone hear's Bigfish yelled out then, "what are you using", everyone then knows who Bigfish is, and where he is at that moment, thereby burning his spot.

This is probably why I lost my voice....I must have told the udder cream story a 100 times....lol. or when I was yelling for my life.

See, I had to go use the men's room before I headed home yesterday. Well, when I came out every one was gone. Not a person left in the venue. I then worked my way out the back vendor door on my bike to my car, It was the only car in the parking lot besides a dark colored van which I thought nothing of. As I made my way to my vehicle the van took off and two guys in masks jumped out and thru a pillow case over my head. I tried fighting back and yelling for help but there was no use. They quickly bounded my hands and legs with duct tape and shoved a rag that smelt like eels in my mouth. I couldn't tell you where they took me, but I know it felt like we road around for ever. The van then came to a stop and another rag this one which smelt like pogie oil was used to knock me out. When I came to I found my self tied to a beach chair in what looked like an old shack which had hundreds of old plugs hanging from its rafters. I could hear my captors talking, but couldn't make out what they were saying till I heard a door creek open and another guy walk in. One guy asked the other ..." You got the video"...the other guy replied "Ya, but I don't remember him saying anything" Then I herd a deeper voice say..." If this guy gave any of our spots up, Im going to shove a 4oz pencil up his &^%$%^ god help him, one pole number and he's toast. At this point I didn't know what to expect...am I going to die?......is this video of my seminar? and when they see I gave nothing up will they let me go? to be honest with all of you, I was afraid for my life........They then went outside to talk over there plans. This when I realized if I was going to make it out alive and walking normal from these crazy canal rats I would have to make a move now. Apparently these guys weren't S-b members and when tied me up didn't realize that my smooth and soft nipples from using udder cream for all these years would allow me to slip thru the rope they used to tie me to the chair. I was then able to reach my pocket size udder cream and squeeze some on the duct tape allowing me to slip my hands and legs free. I then took off the blind fold and made my way thru the back of the shed and out a plank that was loose in the wall. There I saw my bike....so I made my way to it and headed down a long dirt road. By now my captors had realized I was gone and were on my tail. Taking the last bit of the udder cream I squirted it on the road sending there van over a cliff and into the canal. Luckly I was able to flag a car down when I made it to a main road which then called 911 for me and I was then taken to a local hospital. Thank god I was able to make it out alive with only a few bruises and scratches...The police said I was lucky to have such soft nipples and able to slip free....They never found my kidnapers and they said I now will have to watch my back.

Great.....now there's another effing snag in the canal. Someone ought to get you for this.
