Location: Waukesha Wisconsin | I’m at a lost for words!
Thank you everyone for your kind words, your encouragement throughout the season, and the congrats. I hope that you realize that your friendship and support means more to me than the title.
I have been away from the computer for a few days and had no idea about the chatter that was going on. I appreciate all the comments concerning the angler of the year award AND the KA-BOOM ad. I loved the ribbing!
There is absolutely no way that I could have achieved the success that I had this season in the FLW League without the help of some GREAT friends AND GREAT sponsors. I appreciate the help/support from all of you. Everything from the early morning phone call wishing me good look to the late night updates on the hot bites are greatly appreciated. I hope I do not offend any of you by giving special thanks to a few individuals. THANK YOU Someday for the use of your brand new Ranger while mine was in for a little repair work. How many of us would hand over the keys to our brand new dream machine to a friend? I’ll never forget what you did for me. Tyee, Troy, Butch, Stinger, Rich, Brian, Terry, and Johnnie Rocket, thank you for the fishing information…… no one does it completely alone……… and your leads paid off for me. Shenk, Lund Dude, Little Nephew, Fishing Fool, thanks for spending time in the boat and letting me use you as a sounding board. HGmeyer, Shep, Schmitty, NOFish, Sworral, Dale, thanks for the show of support and the friendship.
There was no way that I would have had the 05 success without great sponsors like: Dave's Ka-Boom Baits, Mercury Marine, Lund Boats, Navionics, Lowrance, TrollMaster, , Main Marine & Ski, Pure Fishing, Storage Battery Systems Inc, PowerPro, and Minn Kota trolling motors.
A special thanks to Dave at KABOOM and Jeff at Navionics. The two of you are ALWAYS there for me. It means a great a deal to me.
Here I said that I was at a lost for words and I write a long letter.
Sorry if I did not mention everyone of you by name who supported me all season. It doesn’t belittle my thanks and the love that was truly felt.
Now it's back to reality for me. I need to cut the grass, do a few "Honey Do's", repack and reorganize and it's off to Menominee for the MWC.
Thank You
