Hey Ronnie, long time no see!
I have included Eagle Mountain for the first series. If the response is solid enough I will consider lakes both west and east.

Solo Bass....deja vu, where have I heard that before?
You need to come up with something a little more original actually I think Media bought that from Tilton.

Yes, Media took it over.
Really enjoyed fishing the Solo Bass Trail.
I'd like to fish another individual trail again.
One that doesn't cost an arm and a leg to enter and is on local lakes.

I'm not trying to step on anyone's toes, I wasn't aware of any other trail using the term "Solo-Bass". If so, I apologize and will change the name. I decided to start this series based on a tremendous amount of requests. If it is making folks upset then I can pull the plug before it even begins!

Scott, on LSB you sampled interest on a thread that the old Solo Bass trail was mentioned a few time so I assume you mean you are unaware of anyone using the name currently. I think Judd is pointing out the lack of originality is all. I admit for what ever reason it does touch a nerve with me that that name is being used but it really shouldn't. I sold it to Media after the first year, although I think I turned out a nice product and was a decent director in the end it wasn't for me and Media wanted to expand and purchased it. So really if Gordon protected it the name belongs to him not me, if its not protected then you have all the rights in the world to it. Good luck and name your trail what ever works for you if its a previously used name then so be it. Chris

I researched to see if there was any trail and/or organization that was using "Solo-Bass". I could not find anything so I thought it wasn't being used. I had no intention of using somebody elses name and/or ideas and if that is what it appears I have done then I apologize. I will change the title of this program and I apologize to you and to Media if I offended you. That was certainly not my intention.

Don't change it on my account or apologize for that matter its not owed at all. If you like the name Solo use it. It just wasn't original is all, and like I said it shouldn't bother me. Its a good niche to fill it worked back then and it will work again I am sure.

Scott,
I think you should ask the forum what name they would like to see. I was thinking "one man show" or "going solo".

I appreciate your comment, and please know that I was not trying to take away from your efforts. I would have been a little upset as well had I seen someone using a name that I had come up with for another trail. I want to respect you and Media and will remain with my decision to change the name. I like the idea of having the anglers recommend it! Don't change it on my account or apologize for that matter its not owed at all. If you like the name Solo use it. It just wasn't original is all, and like I said it shouldn't bother me.

Here is a little contest.......
Since I have developed this new series based on the feedback from you, what would you like to call this series? From now until our preview event on November 7th, give me some ideas on some names that we could title this series with.
