Hey all,

I've been out of the game for about 2 years. I was hoping to get an update on what's been going. New tournament trails? New gear? New techniques?

I appreciate it!

I threw out all of my traditional gear and basically own googan baits and favorite rods now.

I lol at alot of those "pro staff" guys where they let everyone in that ask and then give a blanket 3% off products so they can go out and put a label on their Jersey with the other 50 bait companies already on it.

You offering to give one away? I'll take it! It can't be any worse than the powerdrive v2, that thing is terrible.
