Old but new

[slick]

Been around a long time [74 years] but joined forum recently. Got artificial knees, arthritis in both shoulders, heart attack /two stents, pulmonary fibrosis, on oxygen but still casting a little for bass, crappie & bluegill. Tracker V18/90hp.Merc. I was one of the old original members of Chattanooga Bass club. I grew up fishing with Gary Alverson and he and I joined the bass club together. We lost Gary last August, I still miss him every day. I can only fish when another buddy is off work because I can't load and launch alone. The wife don't won't let me fish alone. Who knows, maybe I'll find 2 or 3 new buddies on here. Enjoy the forum, you guys sure make my days shorter. Thanks, and keep your worm wet. "Slick"

Welcome aboard, Slick. I actually had a great uncle we called slick and it was my nickname for much of my childhood. Anyway, I'm sure you'll find some folks on here to wet the ol' line with.

All the best

Welcome to the forum

I've had that nickname since the fifties, old high school football coach hung that on me and it just would never go away. It was even on my business card for 32 years.

Slick...did ever fish with or against a Acuff fellow, back in the day?

I remember an Acuff but never had the pleasure to fish with him.
