WTG Juls. Hope to see you on the circuit. you will do great.

[JUST WONDERING]

HEY SF HOW MUCH MONEY HAS SHE WON IN THE PAST. YOU HAVE TO WIN MONEY TO BE A PRO.

[wallytap]

YES! I was wondering when this would happen......Grats Juls. Any other details?

[s.f.]

her highest finish is third place in an nawa team event. she placed as high as 13th on the co-angler side of rcl. placed in the money on the mwc circuit and most importantly, juls has excelled on the promotions aspect of the business. yes...she quailifies...

peluso...shoot the puck!
the rest...set the hook!

Way to go Juls! Couldn't have happened to a better person! Go Girl!!

[Dave in Mpls]

There has got to be one in every crowd, I guess.

Actually, you don't have to win squat. Just pay the entry fee....

[GetReel2]

Juls, Best wishes in 02. Are you fishing the East or West series or both? I've seen a few females in the Am side, are you the first Female to qualify on the Pro side!

Will we be watching history be made?

[No question here]

Spoken like a true caveman. What are you jealous? You definately are uninformed. Juls has won money. Juls busts her backside promoting her sponsors and herself. She is an asset to the sport and a credit to female anglers, ne all pro anglers. Also, you do not have to win money to be a "Pro". You have to put in your time in the trenches and fish a circuit, or many tournaments. If in doing so, you get compensation from sponsors you are a pro. A pro is a person who makes some or all of their living from fishing tournies and promotions.

[Juls_WI]

I humbly thank everyone, for your support. It really means the world to me. I'll take all the good luck I can get my hands on!

Just to clarify things a little bit, I am not fishing the PWT, but rather the RCL(pro-angler), MWC, and the Wacker.

I'm moving to another state simply for the reason that, "I can".;-)

I'm going to move closer to all those big piggies in Lake Erie and the Detroit River. You all know how much I like to handline, and what better place to do that than where it was invented?

Thanks for all the kind words. I'll give it my best!

You can see who my sponsors are and my tournament schedule at: http://www.walleyecentral.com/JuliaDavis/index.shtml

[Wallygetter]

Juls, that is great, I know you will do well. Wishing you a very productive 2002, and see you in Detroit. #566

[Stinger(WI)]

Juls,

AWESOME!!!!
This is truley one of the best things to happen in this industry in a long time. You definitly are going to go places in the walleye world. I never did get a chance to ice fish with you on Pewaukee Lake but maybe will get a chance in 02 for some handlning on the river.

Take Care and Good Luck

The best to all your efforts, young lady, make us all here on WC proud.

[EyeBoy]

Juls;
"A humble thank you from humble beginings", your a class act.

As Scott G. said at the WCWGTG @ Glendo, you are an excellent representitive of the sport. SIC-EM!

But the question that begs to be asked is, what is your walleye ride, and how is it rigged?

The best of luck in your endeavors.

Tom/MT.
Catch a wave!

[WAeyes]

Good luck on your new pursuits in the fishing world. Hope it works out for you.

[iamwalleye1]

[SUPERTROLLER]

Hey Juls, Sorry about the misinformation on the PWT. I knew it was one of them but mixed them up cuz I thought the Detroit River Tournament was PWT and not RCL. My Bad !!! Anyhow, Good Luck in your new ventures. How's your house hunting going in Ohio? Don't expect you to post the address but maybe general area or city. Are you also working anywhere? Inquiring minds need to know. lol.

[Den]

Congratulations Juls, i guess it had to happen , but you do work hard at it, and as long as you keep it fun, it will pay back too. best of luck in the move too. welcome to the ________ area, lol. see you soon. BEST WISHES. good luck and good fishin.
Den.

[hammertime]

GO GET THEM TIGER !! let em know you were there, and you mean business! bring them to there knees. good luck and kick butt.

[ezmarc]

Good Luck in all your pursuits Juls! You've enlightened many of us on this board and deserve the opportunity. You are moving to Walleye heaven, although this year it was more like the Walleye Twilight Zone!

Oh yeah, most people here in Ohio don't say "eh", unless they hang around with those upper midwest Walleye guys too often. Again, GOOD LUCK!

[Tracy]

WTG Juls. You are living the dreams of many here on Walleye Central, me included! Nothing but the best to you.
Walleyes are forever Juls!

Don't want you to forget us Winnebago boy's ;)
Great Job

[Jim Ordway]

Ditto on the congrats to Juls. Work, sacrifice, focus. Those aspiring to join the pro ranks of this sport could take a page out of your book. I join the ranks of those rooting for good things to come your way.

[Captn Ric]

You got my VOTE!!!!

See you in on the big water soon,
Nothin wrong and a lot right with the Buckeye State

[jerry]

Good luck, Juls. I'll see you on the water. Please take it easy on your big brother. Remember, I'll tell Mom if you beat me too bad!!!

[ufda]

Way to go Juls. Good luck from us all.

[Marge Pelkey]

I am so happy for you. I know what you can do as I was one of the lucky ones to partner up with you. I'll miss our good talks while we were handlining. They were fun. Good luck to you. You know where to find Pelk and I.

[Peluso]

Juls, sorry this is a bit late but congrats! I figured it was only a matter of time before you decided to chase your dream. I have to tell everyone here a little story. This is about the first time I met Juls, well actually the second and first time we met. I was pre-fishing for the NAWA event on Lake Sakakawea when I first met Juls. I was very impressed how much she was into the fishing.
I guess that stuck with me for a long time. The second time
i met up with Juls was on Lake Winnebago. She pulls up in her Ford Pick up with the stickers on it and everything! Again, I thought this gal means business! She fished with myself and my father for the day, and I was equally impressed with knowledge of walleye fishing. Pretty cool stuff to say the least :). So when I read this post of Juls turning her dreams into reality, it didn't surprise me a bit. Good luck with everything and I will see you on the tour. Good fishing and don't forget to shoot the puck. Mike Peluso #999

[Juls_WI]

Thanks Marge!
You will never know how instrumental you were in inspiring me to do this. You will always be the queen of walleye fishing in my book, and if I ever grow up, I want to be just like you! ;-)

I'll see you and Pelk at Bago!
Juls
P.S. If Pelk ever lets you partner with me again, I'm not giving you back..heheheh

Give Merc a belly rub for me!
See you soon..

[smiley]

Congrats Juls!! You are one of my inspirations. I can only dream of doing what your doing. Some day maybe...
Good luck in the move.

HEY JULS, GIVE NE A CALL IF YA CAN. 223-1838

[Juls_WI]

What's the area code? If you don't want to leave it here, just email it to me at juls@walleyecentral.com

I tried the 608 area code, but the recording didn't sound like the only TEX I know, so I hung up...lol

Thanks,

Juls

[Sheila]

Hey Juls, I got to see our Hockeyman (Peluso) play in Florida the other night. He is spectacular. Chicago won easily 3-0. I made this sign out of a pillowcase that said "Shoot The Puck Peluso", but was not sitting in spot where he could see it. Only opp to display to him when he was in the penalty box across the ice! (hehe did you see it Mike?) I did not quite understand why you were sent to penalty box 2 times you silly, it all happened so fast! Good game though.

Anyway - I can send you this cool sign to use when you get up to Detroit to see Peluso play there. It folds up to pocket size.

[Juls_WI]

Sheila,

Cool! Send it up here. Wait, I don't have an address yet..lol

I'll let you know when I do have a permanent addy, and you can send it up then. Heck, you might be moving back up there too, so just bring it with you when you come..Maybe catch the game together?? It's on April 10th I think?? When did you say your boy graduates?

Heard Mike got at least one penalty for roughing, but it was the opponant who elbowed Mike first. Didn't know he was a bad boy twice that night. Men! They just can't play nice..hehehe

Just as long as he doesn't lose any teeth, and make that great smile look really stupid, then he can rough-house as much as he wants to. That sport must make his mom crazy I would think. ;-)

Hope to see you soon Sheila! You're missed up this way. You have to give up those Kingfish tournaments, and get back to your roots...Walleye!!!!

We need more women fishing these events don'tcha know!

Juls

[Targa]

Hi Juls, congratulations on being able to live out the dream so many of us have. When we fished together on Winnebago, you talked a little bit about what your ambitions were and what you were working on for full time fishing and sponsorship, apparantely everything is falling into place for you. Good luck, and don't forget about us wannabees. Hope to see you at the RCL on Bago. Take care and keep in touch, Tim

[Targa]

Almost forgot Juls, remember to count all the fish in the livewell!! Our little joke, LOL, Tim

[Upnorthwalleye]

Juls--I wish you the best of luck on both your move and on the RCL and MWC!!!!-------Congrats once again!-----Ray

[TEX]

THAT WAS MY ANSWERING MACHINE JULS. SORRY FOR THE TROUBLE.
THANKS, DANNY

[luvtotroll]

I had the pleasure of having Juls for partner for a tournament season. Ahe is definately going to turn some heads, and not just because she is the first female walleye pro on the RCL.

It will be a little different having to compete against you now Juls.
Good luck and I will see you on the water,

Scott

[Ness]

I just wanted to add my voice to the chorus of congratulations. I've been kind of busy the last few days and didn't get to see this until now.
I know how hard you've been working for this, Juls, and you deserve to see your dreams come true. You've got the smarts, the determination,the style and the guts, girl. You're going to go far and we're all going to be very proud of you :-)

[Gary Gray]

Juls:

Congrates are in order. You will do fine out there. I have had the priviledge of fishing with Juls, and there is "No" doubt, she will put fish in the boat. The level of competition has just moved up a notch!

Good Luck Juls,

Gary Gray

[Ted Takasaki]

I just wanted to reinforce all of the great things that people have been saying about Julia Davis. She is a great lady, professional, entertaining, and a good promoter as well as a good angler. Lindy is very proud of her and her accomplishments and I look forward to great things from her in the future. Hopefully, this thread will bring additional sponsors to her attention as she embodies everthing that a good pro staff member should be.

Congratulations on your decision Juls and I wish you the best of luck on the RCL this year. It would be awesome to have a woman Champion or Angler of the Year! I'll be rooting for you.

[Juls_WI]

Ted,
I'm speechless...;-)
Thank you for your support, and kind words! It means a great deal to me.
Best wishes to you, and EVERYONE, for a great 2002 season!
Remember, keep it fun!

Juls

[EyeJacker]

I guess by your own criteria that makes you an amatuer, which your comment seems to substantiate! :)

[EyeJacker]

Congratulations Juls, may Neptune smile upon you!:)

[SUPERTROLLER]

Let's just hope she ain't talking to him "Up close and personal".

This is a good time for a tip. Juls, "Keep the boat off the ROCKS." (your welcome)

[Capt. Denny Bergeman]

Juls,

Just heard the good news. Gutsy move on your part. But your fullfilling a dream. Good Luck. Hope you do well.
