without getting into politics (at least i tried
)....it would be hard to convince me there is a recession or the economy is bad......there is a carp-load of folks out there right now that either have a big stack of cash or a big stack of bills. the number of mega bucks bass rockets, super grade striper boats and lets dont even get started on the vast array of ski/pleasure boats that cost more than most middle class family homes, is unbelievable.
saturday morning i was trolling in a particular area of the lake that allowed me to see most of the tournament traffic. it was humorous to watch one tournament blast up the lake out of one area, only to pass the other tournament heading right to where the other tournament had just left from.
saturday morning mark and i were about 10 miles from each other and i called him and told him to find a cove to hide in "here they come" lol. at one point i told mark the boat count going in either direction was over 150 boats, and i wasnt even close to being done counting
its a big lake, with a big crowd.
