Enjoy your trip, I'm sure you'll catch a boat load. I'm going to try and get back on Barkley myself before the end of the month, just need to get some things complete here at the house first.

Hope you have a wonderful time. I'm sure you guys will wear them out. I'm predicting you catch a 7-3/4 largemouth on your trip. Don't let me down.

Birdwood, have a great time. I know you have one good well-thoughout prank for Mike. Just try not too hard one him.

Sorry Bone, but will go to my grave and never get a prank over on ANYONE better than the LOG SALMON that I got over on YOU!!!!

I am sitting her laughing my butt off thinking about the Log Salmon and can absolutely remember every single second of the whole ordeal. I can see 3sons just about falling out of the boat for laughing so hard and me just about falling off my seat with my sides hurting like I was just kicked by a mule. Absolutely the funniest thing that has ever happened in my boat and that is saying something considering all the laughter that happens in my boat. Now get back to work and go Respiratory Therapy somebody - but watch out for the LOG SALMON for I hear they are about to make their annual spawning run back up the river.

The trip will start out GREAT for I am taking a nice 8 1/2 x11 Glossy of Mr. David Hayes holding the World Record Smallmouth down with me that we took a couple of weeks back when I spent a couple of hours with him and stopping by his house Saturday and he is going to autograph it for me. The trip will be made just because of that and no fish catching will be needed.

Don't laugh too hard. Don't sneeze too forcefully. Don't lift more than 2 lbs. That should keep you safe. I just worry a bout the "laughing too hard." That will be a hard one for you, Birdwood.

Sebile 6 1/2" Magic Swimmer been tied on since last night and if that does not work have Strike King King Shad's, Hollow Body Swim Baits and a few Sexy Swimmers ready willing and able to be tied on at a minutes notice. 20lb Flourocarbon, 7'MH rod and Quantum Reel to complete the Swimbait Arsenal. Only caught 5 fish EVER on swimbaits but would love to tie into a few MONSTER females this weekend.
