Hey General I started a string for us to post fish and comments. Of course this will not replace the smack thread but keep it clean for those who don't want to follow our little smack side bet.  :happy1:

Well General I had a quiet weekend, no fishing for me. The fuel pump went out on the Puddle Humpers tow and I had to wait on a replacement.  :banghead:  Time was not wasted as I did do some chatting with the guys at the Lodge  :toast:  and I now have a few spots that are said to hold Walleye.  :titanic:  I even have gone so far as to rig a walleye rod up...  :scratch:  Even went so far as to dig in the basement and find the tackle box with walleye gear in it. Since it is old stuff it should work as I am looking for an old walleye to post.   :rotflmao:  A few days of work this week and I should be back on the water. Even bought a red and white spoon!  :happy1:

My computer is out at home so I have not been able to keep up on all the excitement.  I came across another pic that reminded me of your new thread.   :rotflmao:

Well General you are off the hook for this past week! I did get a chance to get out, although not under the best of weather conditions. caught 16 bass and several were just at 14 inches but not big enough to post for our little side bet. The lake I fished at has no northerns so I coulnd not even give them a try. Just want to let ya know that between shooting video I am trying to do some fishing!

BB I'm guessing I'm going to get out 5 times and that is it for our little side bet.  So you will have all the time in the world to win.  Plus the extra 15 days in September all to your self.

No excuses!  My time has been pretty much planed for up until then by the C.P.  I'm guessing this one trip I'm taking with a few friends for the day is all I'm going to need to beat you.   ;D

Who knows BB that may just be the winning fish.  I've got one last chance that I'm banking on, but it isn't for a few more weeks.  But I'll def give it a try.  I'm already a winner in my book.  I got a tired old, handicapped man to get up off the couch and get active again.  It kind of brings a tear to my eye I'm so proud of you.

:blues brothers: Tired? old? Handicapped? is that the best excuse you have for giving up? Gee I even went fishing with an old rod and reel and it was left handed on top of it just so I could give you a shot at the title. And here I thought you were a contender not a pretender.. Well Lee is back and I guess your King of Smack title will be taken away from you next..  :cry:

First off let's get this King Of Smack crown/title thing reigned in a bit. It's at my discretion as to whom may or may not be labeled King Of Smack. Let us expand on this topic for the benefit of those members who may not have been around at the time General was anointed King Of Smack by myself Lee Borgersen. Therefore let it be known that it is I and only I who can at any time remove the title from the reigning king.

I must admit that The General has changed his standards and some of his smack is not as well thought out as in prior years therefore pressuring me to make a decision as to King Of Smack status he's cherish over this last year and a half. At this particular time however It seems that no one has stepped up enough to claim dominance over our recent Smack King.


Let it be known to all members that the title King Of Smack is something that has to be earned by the individual's  achievements' throughout the year. There are no free tickets to the title/crown. If the current King start's heading towards a downwards trend, then he will be judged accordingly and the proper actions will be taken.

I guess you figured you weren't going to be able to reel any big fish in so you have to start having someone do the hard work for ya.  I'm ok with that though.
