Happy Birthday and many more.

Haven't been on the forum in a few weeks and just saw this. Shocked and saddened to hear this. I had the pleasure of spending the day with Buster probably over 20 years go on Table Rock on a guide trip while we were at Big Cedar for spring break. Buster and I hit it off from the beginning when he found out I was from Oklahoma and he told me he was an Okie as well. I learned a ton on how to fish a stickbait watching Buster that day. He showed me some of his Rogues that were painted and the longer bills he and Tim Sainato were putting on them. I think it was kind of a secret at the time but he had to show me what they had. We didn't catch many that day but still had great time. I saw him again a year or so later when I fished in a Central Pro Am as a non boater on Table Rock. He remembered me and was friendly as could be. Invited me to practice with him on the next Central Pro Am derby at Table Rock. RIP Buster. Blessed to have spent some time with you.

Saw where Randy Blaukat is no longer working with Bait Wrx/Boat Wrx.

Nice! Good day on the water.

I did my reel trade in OKC. The guy at the counter didn’t seem to know for sure but didn’t think Shimano was included since they haven’t been in the past. Was looking at getting a Shimano Vannford spinning reel. Going to go back and try again.

That's good to know Bill. I did a reel trade in last week and asked the guy at the counter if Shimano was included and he didn't think it was. Might go back and trade another and ask again.

Agree. Tim painted quite a few of my old Rogues and came up with the iconic Table Rock Shad color, so I’m told. Still use some of the ones he painted.

Great job. Always feel warmer when you are catching them.

Congrats to you and Becky. Great location and view. 👍

Doubt any will return to MLF. Especially Christie with a Classic win a two other wins.

Nicely done.

Man that looks tasty! Good luck at deer camp.

Glad you are enjoying your retirement. You have earned it. Stay safe.

A drive but Bass Boat Technology in Tulsa is hard to beat. Experts on the units and installation.

All is well here Champ. Hope you and Donna are doing well on the water and the links.
