CM is NOT the hero of the Bay State!
[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON Jan-26-06 AT 07:03PM (EST)[/font][p]Hey Dave, I'm going to have some of my old buddies look you up at the show. Is it still at the Centrum in Worcester or have they moved it to the Convention Center in Westboro? Let me know your schedule up there so I can pass it on to them.
A couple of my buddies have actually been down here to visit and have fished Barkley with me a few times. They will have a blast talking to you and may even tell you some lies about me, but don't believe a word they say! Heck they may even take you out for some real New England Clam Chowder or even take you out for some ice fishing!
Just to set the facts straight, CM is DEFINATELY not the hero of the Bay State. Theres quite a few up there that don't like his antics either.
Now, the real hero slot is reserved by a fellow named Joel St. Germaine, he just made the Classic through the Federation ranks for the 2nd time in 3 years, a very tough feat indeed! Who says them Yankee boys cain't fish! LOL

And there is nothing I like better than New England Clam Chowder so I definitely hope to meet them!! I will pass on the ice fishing though...LOL. The show is still at the centrum in Worcester. I will be there the entire show but my seminars are on Thurs, Sat, and Sun. KVD will be the speaker on Saturday.
Actually I expect CM has his followers and non followers where ever he is...one thing for sure though...he took a pretty good marketing idea and made it work...not bad for someone that really does not have a fishing reputation that I have heard of or been able to determine other than on his show. I really am looking forward to meeting him....to see for myself what kind of guy he is in person behind the scenes. From what I have seen about the show we are working he will actually be doing seminars in another part of the building than where I will be so I hope my schedule works out that I can get to meet him. When I was at the Philadelphia show last weekend Ted Nugent was also there doing hunting seminars in the other end of the building from where I was...I really wanted a chance to meet him but every time he was scheduled there I was scheduled to do a seminar on fishing....I hope it works out better at the Mass show and I can meet CM.
