I met Ricky Green at fishing club that I worked at south of Houston back in the day. About 5 years later I was at a Dentist office in Hot Springs and met his mom. She had one of his cards in her purse and gave it to me.

Few years ago I was at Bass Pro in Garland. I had just checked out and was walking out the door not paying any attention to anyone around me when someone right behind me said something to me. I don't even remember what he said but I turned around and it was Gary Klein. We stood outside and talked for a bit. Really super nice guy!!! Saw him again at the PAA tournament and after he weighed in he came out into the crowd and sat down right behind me. I figured he knew the people or something but nope.....they had a little black lab puppy and he wanted to see the puppy. LOL! After that he started handing out some free samples of stuff from his goody bag.
Not to many sports where the fans get to interact with the sports elites like you can in fishing.

Those are are a blast from the past for sure. I certainly agree with the "Catch and Release" card.......

Rich Tauber pretty much put Flipping on the map. Very cool! I may be wrong, but I believe Dee Thomas is the man who put flipping on the map. ^^^^This...

Remember when those cards came out but haven't seen them in a long time. Fished with 8 of those guys including Mr. "get off my lawn" Biffle. Others were R Clunn, D Wharton, G Cochran, H Allen, T Martin, and west coast guys R Tauber and M Folkstad. Allen and Tauber were really fun to fish with no matter if we were catching much that day or not. Clunn 20-25 years ago was the KVD of the time and could get more bites than anyone around him. Day before fishing with Biffle watched him win $10,000 in a flipping/casting accuracy contest and 2nd place wasn't even close. All those guys on the cards really helped build the foundation of top level bass fishing that we have today.
