In early October Rob Jensen and I decided to take the day and go to a local lake for a few hours of relaxation. Something tournament fisherman don't usually get the pleasure of doing as we are usually either practicing for competing in a tournament. Honeoye lake is ussually known for its quantity not quality. Not on this day. The bite was tough, but the fish we got were of tournament quality. this is a 4.25 pound largemouth taken using a D-Bomb flipping the deep weedlines.

The Reason
Many people start a blog for several reasons. Here are my reasons
1. Document my travels and tell your story- Since I have decided to take a step towards
attaining my childhood dream of becoming a professional bass tournament fisherman,
I feel it necessary to keep my family, friends, and sponsors abreast of what I
am doing.
2.
Attract others who are passionate
about a topic –The
more the better.
3. Contribute my knowledge- I would like for others who are interested in my
subjects to join in no matter their skill level.
4.
Give back to my profession- In writing this my hope is that
I will be showing people whose paths I have followed or crossed will see what an
impact they have had on me.
5. Gain Visibility-
I am hoping that the more I write, the more I am visible and therefore I
will be successful in this.
6.
Build a business portfolio to
complement my resume-
I have worked for the last several months at building a resume and
fishing portfolio. Now I am adding this blog to hopefully help with #7.
7. Find opportunities for sponsorship- The more I can put prospective sponsors names out
there the better chance I have at getting them. As well as keeping them.
8.
Establish myself as a go-to resource- I would like for people to
come to me for help or re-assurance in this subject. We all try new things, help
along the way is critical.
9. Showcase my sponsors- enough said.
