To those B-N-T anglers that won't be able to make this years Invitational. I would like to say I'll miss seeing you guys there. Every year it seems as if I get to know you guys a little more at each of these events. Hopefully next season I'll be joining you guys for a few more of your B-N-T tourneys. Any way, I just hope you all can some how pull it together and join us in the fun this weekend.

I have agree, I know I will miss my friends that wont be there.

I know some of you have things going on and "cant" make it and I understand that, but if you have nothing going on this weekend, your missing out big time by not joining us. This is the only event open to all BNT members where all 3 regions will be attending.

I sure wish I was able to make it out this year, I had fun fishing those two team tourneys I fished with you guys this year, but I just can't be away from the house this weekend for both days. I also still have a rent a car cause my car won't start. My brother got married last weekend in St. Louis so I'm just starting to get caught up with school for what I missed on last Thursday and Friday. I'm taking a couple of upper division poli sci classes that are directly dealing with elections and another in american political behavior so im just overwhelmed with extra projects because of how close we are to a national election.
I wish everybody the best and have a fun time, I know I will be while sitting here typing a paper :)

While I was at the pro-shop at lunch picking up my panther martins I saw Russ and he was picking up some awesome stuff for the raffle.One of the items being a g-loomis glx!:7

I have a gig Saturday night, otherwise I would probably go...although my kayak makes the SCBBBC guys a little nervous! ;-)

i didnt break it down like that...not bad at all

Yes, it's a great turnout. Having over 40 anglers for a float tube tournament in October is pretty awesome.

Good luck to all.

Clint isn't working although I do not have tech backup that weekend. Clint is taking his daughter to one of her "must make" swim meets (3 of these per year) because his wife has to working. Clint does get to fish on Sunday which makes Clint happy although Clint would have liked to make this tournament so that he could donate his $$$'s as he has done in the past. How else can I live up to my handle?

P.S. I am REALLY hoping to make invitationals and opens next year although I will probably make fewer regular club events...

P.P.S. If you all think Clint is just too weird, cut Clint some slack: Clint hasn't been out fishing in about a month and is going through heavy withdrawls.

Swamp-thing,

Actually I'm playing keyboard in this group, but I did play tenor sax in my youth (I still have mine). The soprano sounds interesting, although I don't know that I would ever use it...
