Light Tackle Talk - Wednesday on KI

[spynet000]

Shawn,

Wish I could make it but if you come to Carrol County i'll be sure to go. You always put on a great presentation.

Looks like April 1 for the Carrol County meeting on spring jigging. Also, next month I'll be doing a Careful Catch presentation in DC on Wednesday, March 3. Finally, top-water & jigging at the Pasadena Sportfishing meeting in June.

For those of you who don't come, don't worry - just gives me somebody to rag on at the meetings!

when are the field lessons going to take place

I hope the talk went well. I had a MarioKart challenge from the kids while my wife attended a meeting.

Shawn gave an excellent presentation to a packed house at the American Legion Hall in Stevensville last night. They had so many people show up they had to go into the next room to get enough chairs for everyone.
It is definitely worth the effort to see his presentation and ask him questions. Once he starts to open up the secret LTJ vault, I was actually surprised at the level of detail he is willing to reveal.
A couple other observations:
The American Legion bar area is really very nice.
Eat some food before going to an event like this.
If you buy a "bucket" of beer you get one (beer) free.
People love to play with Spike-It dye.
If you kiss SK's ring, you get a Candy Corn Jig Head.
His fish pictures are bigger than anyone else's (including Jamie's).
There are Kimbro Groupies (unfortunately, they are mostly scraggly dudes).

Wish I coulda made it but its 120 mile round trip! Still, it would have been worth it for one of those jigheads!

Ha ha... the female groupies were waiting in the bar.... I was outnumbered and needed help, but I guess my listserve brethren have short apron strings.....

Thanks to those who came - I was hoping no one would tell Jamie I "minimized" his pictures!

Yup, I cringed every time that spike-it jar came out. The Legionaires are good people, but I still didn't want to buy them a new carpet.

Thanks to Rick for buying the beer last night, and Mark for bringing out some gear to show, and especially to the Kent Island Fishermen. Good folks.

Mark makes me laugh in a sick twisted sort of way...the groupie thing put it over the top, if it had been in Arnold, you could have added drooling to the scraggly

We'll try Shawn, but there appears to be a pretty large line building

Ballszilla; what's this "we" crap?

Shawn also allowed complete strangers to play with (i.e. fondle) his 10" Purple Plunger (known as a BKD to normal people) for the entire evening.
