Great cause right here guys, cancer has touch so many of our lives. Time to pony up and fish this one, some really nice prizes lined up Tom. Super job by you, and the RHBC.

My boat's been parked for a while but I'm 'coming back' for this one!

"6 month update!

Can it really be six months??? Well, it�s not been that long since I darkened your e-mail box with these updates, but it�s been six months since my last chemo treatment. Actually, six months and nine days but who�s counting... I know one thing, the last six months have flown by when compared to the six before it. I just wanted to send out a quick update and let you know how things are going. Life is back to normal. "

These are the words of a Cancer survivor...and close friend of mine...CANCER RESEARCH WORKS...Please join us in our Fish for a Cure!

Registered this afternoon. As we get through this weekend's tournaments around the state, let's start getting a roll call on here to let folks know you're coming out. This is an event we want the fishing community to get behind this year and in the future. It's important and a lot of us like me are too fat for the usual cancer awareness 5k's. Same opportunity to support the cause but I'm fishing instead. Sounds good to me.

Looking forward to this one!

I'll be there to fish/donate to the cause!

I will be there!

In

I will be there

I'm in. I have friends towing their boat up from Austin to fish. And another friend from here in Dallas. So myself and two other boats! Should be fun.

Wish I could make it but still on IR and can't fish till 2017. I should be able to make it to donate to the raffle for a great cause.

Not just us but thanks Billy. A huge thanks to Scott Gordon for coming on board immediately. Scott lends instant credibility. He's the best TD there is and just a great guy. Thanks to Arie Curtis and her people at ACS who have worked with us and been patient with us in our first venture of this kind. Now we need you guys to come out! Come and fish, buy shirts, buy raffle tickets, donate to the cause and come out and have fun with us! Billy and I are LIVING proof of what good research and medicine can do! See you there!

My partner and I will be there. Sounds like a great event for a great cause. Thanks for sharing with the Mc Kinney Bass Club Tom.
