My name is Mike Rosbottom. No e and a M on the end. Now do you remember me? Just kidding.
I just wanted to tell the two of you how much I enjoyed the tournament Saturday. Great job. I can't wait for next month.
I have fished all my life, but this fishing for money is new to me. That's why I really appreciate the way you folks made me feel. Everyone is a friend... everyone treated the same. To me, that's professionalism.
Hello Bill & Donna,
I have been looking back at the whole summer while I'm still on cloud 9 and wanted to share some things with you guy's. I don't know everybody that fished the curcuit this year but I do know several and I have talked to a lot of new faces, met some new friends and they all share the same excitment and the proud to be a part of it attitude.
From what I know of Eldon Crabtree, he is a very respected man by many people including my whole family. We met him in 1991 when I made the state team while he was the president of the Federation. He treated my whole family, Mom and Dad included, like we knew him for years. He was then, as well as now, a very passionate fisherman, who has spoken very highly of your organization, beliefs and hard work. I know you guy's know him better than I do, but you should be very proud to have a Class Act man like him speak of you like he does.
Sunday morning, Tim Vanmeter and his partner showed up where we were fishing, he came within talking distance of us when I caught our first keeper and a few cast later caught our second keeper, after congratulating us on our success he said he would leave us alone and to keep up the good work. A true "Class Act" that would not have happened in any other curcuit.
After you gave out our first place awards on Sunday Bob and I where supprised by the guy's who came up to shake our hands and congratulate us, many who we didn't know ,a true "Class Act".
The "Class Act" Sponsers that you have are truly appreciated by each and every angler who showed up at each event.
You and your crew have embraced all anglers and their familys and treated us with the utmost respect, another "Class Act" that I have not seen in any other curcuit.
I would like to thank you all for your hard work, dedication, passion, donuts, hotdogs, cold drinks and the awesome hog roast. Thank you for providing my family with a truly family oriented event that we all can enjoy to rack up those everlasting memories.
Most of all, thank you for your friendship, you all are truly a Class Act!!!
Brad Ayers & Family
Dear Bill,
Just wanted to make a few comments on tournament site's and dates.
The first one is great... the second one is not.
Pinegrove does not open until the 16th. Also, how about two tournaments at Rockypoint? It's not my favorite place to fish but it's a fun trip.
I don't know if you've drawn for your dates yet... but good luck.
I'd also like to thank you for all the hard work you and your team put in last year. They were by far the best run tournaments I've ever been to.
