Somewhere someone is working on a new bait, rod, reel or device that's going to shake up the fishing world. If it's you, good luck!
I forgot to tell you about the big crawdad dinner at Toledo Bend. I think you’re supposed to call them crayfish, but in my neighborhood, we call them crawdads.

I'm pointed north towards Pickwick Lake and the third Elite Series tournament of the year. I'm really looking forward to it, too. I like Pickwick.
How about that young man from my neighborhood! He gave a darn good accounting of himself last week. I, for one, couldn't be happier about it.

Bassmaster Elite Series pro Charlie HartleyI'm on the Harris Chain practicing for the first Elite Series event later this week. I have to say that what I'm seeing doesn't exactly cheer me up.
When you read this, I'll be on the road again headed toward Florida for the start of the Elite season. I can't wait.
