Snake,
I used to be an avid bass fisherman. I had a 20 ft. Ranger 390 and a Suburban to pull it with and all the rods and reels (all Lew's reels and CastAway rods except for a few All Star rods) Anyway, I fished a ton of tournaments and won a few but that was before I had kids and I felt I needed to be at home more so I got out of it. It was fun and all and I miss it but being there for my kids is more important right now. I still go deep sea fishing with a neighbor of mine. He has a 42' or 46' Hatteras in Georgetown, SC. Now that's a lot of fun. I just enjoy being on the water. My neighbor fishes the Pirate's Cove Billfish Tournament out of Oregon Inlet on the outer banks of NC each year. They came in 2nd one year and won I think it was $75,000. My kids enjoy it when I take them fishing.
