His family, kids the way he took time to sit on the deck and talk with Zona and Tommy I can go on and on.

    Totally impressed with this man through and though. Also on the fishing that was a Bass spanking on those two rocks walls and points that I Have not witnessed well.............Ever, that was flippin EPIC!
    Man you said it. He sure shined as a human being with all he said and does for his charity. The fishing was off the charts amazing!!!!
    Soap box time.....why is it that we get these humble well spoken athletes in fishing (most of them) but other sports we get thugs and punks?? Must be the difference in upbringing and surrounding family and friends.

    Anyway, I'm proud to say I'm a bass fisherman and appreciate men like Randy. I loved the fact he just kept bringing his charity into the obligation as much as possible and when he was tearing up I felt myself doing the same.....I'm a softie when it comes to that stuff.

    God was given a lot of air time with Randy and that's so refreshing.....so nice to see God and a humble man showing his love for his savior. To be honest it made me see how selfish I am......

    Just spot on Don this is exactly what I was trying to say. Good stuff for sure...........Even folks that don't like fishing should watch and see how a real winner is suppose to act and live his life.
