    I truly love this site! Really! My wife is a facebook fanatic and along with about everyone else in my little world has been trying to get me to sign up for that crazy stuff just about everyday. The more I think about it though, I really don't have anything to share that any of those folks really give a hoot about! I'd just as soon sit here tonight in Stillwater, OK and write this theraputic blog about finding out just how much I love bass fishing again. I'm an addict again..... For a while when I lived in SE Oklahoma, I lived on a pond bank. Everyday after school I'd gather up my stuff and find the nearest hole of water and fish it till there wasn't a still spot of water left on it! Then.... I got married and moved back to NE Oklahoma and went a while without even thinking about picking up a rod and reel(unless it was in Cassville, MO). Just by accident one day, I was standing at my brothers house and asked him if he had an extra pole I could borrow for a while just in case I wanted to go. 6 rods later, and enough tackle to fish the BASS tour, I found myself trying to find ways out of work, and on some water fishing. Since then, I have fished at least 4 times a week, and my wife, who is due with our first child in November, is just about ready to whip my brother for giving me those rods! Anywho, it just seems amazing to me how much I missed being ANYWHERE fishing. If I had my choice, I'd certainly be at Roaring River, but between trips, I'll fish anywhere I can.

    First and foremost I want to wish everyone a very happy Easter 2010. I heard an awesome message this morning and wanted to share just a bit of it with you all. The message centered around Matthew chapter 6 verse 22 and 23. It speaks of the eyes being the lamp of the body and if they are good, how the light will fill the body. If they are bad, how the darkness can fill your spirit. I don't know about the rest of you, but this verse really makes me think about what I choose to light my lamp. So often evil and bad can consume everything we look at. GOD wants us to fill our spirit with the light of JESUS CHRIST and be filled with the love, joy and peace that is in HIM. I hope that we all can find the fuel that is provided by our risen savior to light our lives. I sure enjoy this site and all of you that are a part of it. I know my journey in life has been marked by failures and bad decisions, but reminders such as these.... and good places to get away and fish and get close to my GOD are sure the blessings of life. Speaking of blessings..... I found out that I'm going to be a daddy in 2010!!! Can't wait to take my new one fishing!

    I had the chance to spend yesterday at Roaring River with a couple good buddies of mine and my family. We had a great time catching up on all the usual bull, good jokes, cards and fishing. Saturday was absolutely beautiful. A little rain from time to time, but the fish were biting and that sure makes up for the precip. I took advantage from Tim's fishing report and others who had been there and left my jig pole in the truck. Sure glad I did because I really think that catching a fish on a fly rod is about 1000 times better than a regular rod. I finally have a camera now to take good pictures and as soon as I figure out how to post the crazy things I will sure share them with you. The coolest thing about Saturday wasn't just the fish biting, but the fact that right then and there I had everything I needed to be happy. I've always said that GOD knew that I would need a place like Roaring River to take my family too when Muskogee, OK needed to be forgotten for a few days. I love that place. I hope that everyone has their own heaven on earth and that you go there soon and often.

    GOD Bless!
