"Catch Those Arkansas Hawgs!"

Well, as the country music song suggests, "What happens in Mexico, stays in Mexico" so I don't have much to say about Lake Amistad and Del Rio, except that I had a great time! You gals were awesome...I was very impressed!

And believe it or not, I did follow you to the Classic in Birmingham. If you happened to notice, the Alabama license plates all say "The Stars Fell On Alabama" and that is exactly what happened as 24 WBT anglers descended upon Lake Mitchell to determine the 2006 Women's Champions. Wasn't it cool that all the media hype was about the battle between Texas and Arkansas anglers going into the Championship, and that 2 Georgia gals trolled in under the radar and made history? I was also impressed with the number of anglers who showed up to support the contenders. That had to mean a lot to those fishing, as some did not have family there to cheer them on.

Now, you have to get focused on the rest of the tour. Next stop, Lake Dardanelle. Ahh yes, we  met there last August 2006. What a friendly town, Russellville. I have more relatives in Arkansas than any other state. They are excited that I am going to bum a ride in the Catch and Release boat so I can watch them dodge all those lures you gals are getting ready to send their way. There are some "hawgs" in Lake Dardanelle and I don't mean "Razorbacks" you know.
