Mr. Dkmore, Mr. Daryl Roach, and the rest of the APT staff -

You gentlemen, do not know me and I do not know you. I do not appreciate you calling me stupid, unreasonable, or a coward. I believe that your comments show your true character, and that to me is not impressive. I would not think that was a good representation of Anglers Pro Tackle.

Those of you who have posted in support of APT and the decisions they have made, I would ask you to look at it from my perspective (being a non-local DFW, Eagle Mountain, Lake Worth participant) - when this trail was announced last year I was excited about the opportunity to fish a new trail, with great payouts, on some new and some old lakes, with a championship on a West Texas lake. You see, most of us West guys fish a trail all year long, only to have a championship on an East Texas lake or somewhere else thats 5+ hours away. My partner and I saw this as a cool opportunity.

Now, I completely understand that lake conditions can and will force a change - heck I even agree that Hubbard Creek is probably not the best place to fish right now. What upsets me is that obviously the APT folks have known for some time that they had no intention of having the championship on HC. However, it wasn't until two days ago, when asked the question, that it was advertised that there would be a vote for the lake. So, I was supposed to show up at PK this weekend, fish, weigh in, and then be told "oh by the way, we are going to change the championship lake" - that, to me, is complete BS. Sorry for the rambling guys, I just don't think this has been handled professionally.

Your my hero. I love what APT has done but dkmore really doesn't seem to care what we think. They seem to do things on the fly and for people that have to plan in advance it kind
of sucks.
