I think sun exposure mostly causes non malignant cancers. The other side of the coin is that sun avoidance causes vitamin D deficiency and heart problems. Glad you’re ok, B. Cancer is scary.

I don’t think Sportsman’s made their employees work on Thanksgiving. I always try them first.

So, it does make sense to me to restrict tournaments to certain levels of competitors. I get that someone who is a guide on the lake the tournament is occurring or who is fishing at a certain tour level might really change the chances of the weekend warriors. That being said, it make no sense at...

I third Dean’s advice on layering. It’s everything. On waterproofing, you have to wear something that’s breathable. Gore-Tex is the standard. Waterproofing has a rating system, 5,000 rating and up. Anything under 10,000 is useless for fishing. If you are going to tournament fish in cold rain...

Love this tournament. Excited to fish this year! I’m thinking this year I’ll charge my cranking battery rather than having Rusty jump me off!

That list of assets is mind-blowing. I’m not sure the River Gorge Explorer is still on the River, but a few years ago I was in a canoe with my son just out of Lookout Creek when it came blowing up, saw me, and dropped down to almost nothing, creeping by with no wake at all. Huge props for that...

Go to the park below the Chickamauga Dam and drive down river to the end of the park up against the Chatt State campus. The bank to the left of the boat ramp is great for brim.

I use WeatherBug for the radar and lightening maps. Also check against Darksky.

You wimped out on Ruth’s Chris! Thanks Dean, great report.

What’s the limit? I probably need a new motor!

Don’t know what a bore scope stick is, but I do have a “Lizard Cam” that’d go in the cylinders that I could try when I get back. However, it’s going to Glenn on Monday for either diagnosis or post-mortem. “Things Fall Apart” Chinua Achebe

Pulled off the lower unit. Won’t turn with no lower unit and no spark plugs in. I’m thinking that’s a very bad sign!
