Thank you everyone!!!

[RoyL]

Just want to thank first of all Patrick for hooking me up & the rest of the Msba guys. Also thank all the S-B guys & those who came by the Fishing Academy booth and to the seminar. I and the rest of the academy clan had a great time at the show and got to meat some new people. Congrats to Bruce's kid Dan. We had a blast with him at the booth. Thank you everyone......

Roy , nice meeting you. Make sure you see me at the RISAA show, Jeff and I are workin on something for you.

I can't say enough good things about you Roy, Bob is right you are a saint I love your enthusiasm. Thanks for all you do for the sport.
I touched the spongebob rod too, maybe I'll catch some of that light tackle mojo too.

Never met you Roy, but I know you're "good people," as well as a great fisherman! In that regard I see you as the "Crazy Al" of the North! Both of you are equally great guys, & surprisingly modest, as much as super- talented fishermen!

That Spongebob outfit pursuit of yours is wacky & hilarious-- these too common traits of many fishermen! Can I figure that line (thread?) is less than 8 lb. test?-- if so, all you have to do is catch a #47 to eclipse Al's record!

Didn't your late- season Bass River shore fish go around that on similiar tackle?

Thank you to everyone for the kind words, but Im not a saint. Just some one who wants to give back. Im all grown up & I know I still have some more to do, but I came from a tought place and at the age of 34 I can say I made it. I want some of these kids to experience some of the things that made a diffrence for me.

I actually got to hold the

"SPONGE BOB ROD"

Nice meeting you.

I will admit, I touched Roy's rod too
