Jim,

Way to go, partner!!! No one knows how hard you worked, and what you went through to get there. Job well done.

My only regret is that I wasn't there to help. Sorry I let you down, but we'll get 'em together next year.

I was in the camera boat on Day Three watching Jim Carroll as he worked that tough bite. There should be some on the water shots in the Fianl Day album and a bunch onstage as well. Congratulations, sir!

Thanks for all the kind words. It's been a crazy up and down year for me and I managed to end it on a positive note. I took 5 tournament day 0.0's this year...and still made the PWT Championship, only to take another one on Day 1 in Kansas. <It can be a humbling sport at times!>

Thanks to all my friends who helped along the way. It's just about impossible to do this by yourself with all the travel and time away from home, and I've met and fished with so many good people from all over this country that I can feel nothing but blessed and lucky to be able to do it. This fishing life is a good one!

Highlights in Kansas for me were the day we took the soldiers out from Ft. Riley fishing and hearing the stories from their experience in Iraq and other postings. It adds some perspective about what's important in life and the freedom we all enoy as Americans, and it made me appreciate that much more that I'm able to do something that I enjoy so much. They don't fish walleye tournaments in Iraq, and those guys were simply the best of the best.

Also, thanks to my fellow PWT Pros for donating to the JC Poker Profits Fund, which is doing quite well these days... A little Texas Hold'em anyone? Jim Carroll NPAA #333

Congrats also Jim, nice job this year. Was fun watching you and Jonnie! Wondering if Jonnie's problem was he didn't use enough of that Restore on his boat? Kidding. You guys both did well this year to say the least. Skeeter
