 Thanks for coming by and viewing my website. I get quite a few emails through various fishing forums and phone calls with folks asking for advice on products and other bass fishing information.
Generally at tournament event weigh-ins, I'm addressing anglers who are for the most part, waiting around to collect checks, but the continued growth of our sport, I believe, lies with the anglers that are half way home at that point. These are the anglers I hope to help most with this website. Please feel free to email me with your questions and comments. Together perhaps we can both become further educated in our knowledge and appreciation of our great outdoors.

| COVER |
|
The first thing you need to do is get permission if you plan on bringing attractors of any form to a corp. of engineers lake.
Understand this about cover. There is a lot of work involved. It can be done from a pontoon, but I can get it done in 20% of the time from my bass boat. Anyone that has seen my boats through the years, knows my boats are first and foremost work horses. Much the way a farmer views his tractors.
Depending on the type, cover can take years to produce and there is a lot of expense involved. There is a lot of trial and error involved in cover placement. Most fisherpersons don't get that involved in their fishing to put forth the effort. An even smaller percentage know where to put cover, yet 100% of bass fisherpersons have caught bass off cover Read more... |

| "Robby Rose collects (29,889.00) at the 2007 World Series of Poker Main Event" |
After 16 hours of play in a field of 6,400 entrants I found myself in 10th place after day 1. Pocket Kings & later pocket Queen's failed to hold up in all-in situations on day 2 to drop me down into 400th place going into day 3. I worked my way back to 180k in chips 10 hours into day 3 but an A-K offsuit took down my Pocket Jacks to end my tournament. Looking back I lost every hand I went all-in on & you can't have that happen & win one of these events. Despite the bad luck I was impressed with the skill portion of the game I played. It carried me to a decent payday in my 1st Pro event.
I think the patience we develope as fishermen & our abilities to focus over long periods of time may have helped me in the event. It was alot of fun meeting players from all over the world. It's amusing to see how in card tournaments , much like fishing ,that our passion for a sport can break down language barriers. I'm greatful for the experience. |

| Robby Rose goes solo & wins his 2nd Cedar Creek Bass Champs Event |
Weighing in 1 of only 2 limits in a 236 team field Robby Rose wins his 2nd event on Cedar Creek lake. "My practice days were horrible! In one outting I only had 2 bites all day! From experience I knew the fish were there, and the key was to down size to 8lb line & fish small Strike King Jigs very slowly. Making the adjustment I managed 7 bites, 6 of which I landed. I felt heaviness & gently applied pressure in fear of a break off. My fish came off brushpiles on breaklines, in 8-12 ft. of water." Robby earned 20,000.00 for his fifth 1st place Bass Champs team event, including several bonus incentives. |
