Sluggo and myself were accepted on the amateur side for the PWT out of Dunkirk on Lake Erie! Was a little suprised about myself being selected but was in major shock on the other pick. You gotta understand this is the guy that lives on liverwurst and onion sandwiches and sets his dipsie divers out 600'
Anyhow just curious if anyone else here will be fishing this one. We will be running our boats out and fishing for several days before the tournament, would be nice to meet up with some of the WC crew. GIVE US A SHOUT!
Congrats guys, it should be a blast. I won't be there, but I'll expect a report if you do well. :)

Gilligan and Sluggo,
Glad to here you guys got in! Have a good time and enjoy yourselves. Having fished with Gilligan I know he has some productive spots to fish. When are the dates of the tournament? Maybe I can get up to fish, watch, learn all at the same time. JJ

Hi John..The tourney dates are Aug.8-10. Prefishing is the 6th and 7th. I plan on being out there from the prior Sat. till the following Sunday. As for Gilligan..don't know/don't care..I'm mad at him! He was picking on me just because I run my dipsey divers 600' back. What's wrong with that? Good Fishing, Sluggo

Sluggo,
It is good to have alittle fun! Keeps things interesting. Gilligan is a great guy, you know that. I did find it funny he started first on the busting. Well thanks for the dates and I will try to make plans for that time. Thanks for helping scrubuck on river fishing too, he need the help! Best of luck to both of you! JJ

Actually I think prefishing starts the Friday before tournament 8-3 and runs for 5 days.
Only way to have a chance of keeping up with Sluggo is to get him first... by the way did I tell about the huge eye he knocked off Bobs line with the net?

Gilligan,
You better watch! You might score first but Sluggo could come from behind! It is a long way till August. I will be keeping a close EYE on this one. JJ

The best part is that Bob still thinks it was a sheepshead that I knocked off with the net! Sluggo

Fred,
I considered it right until the end but I didn't apply, I've got some other things to do with the money right now.
I'm really excited for you and Chris, I can't wait, even if it's you guys fishing and not me. Maybe I can get up the week before to fish a little, I'll keep in touch. I may try to make it to weigh ins on the last day as well to cheer as one of you guys accepts your new boat.

I will be going, just made res. @ best western if you e-mail I tell you the rate info., if you need it. think it's too early to start packing! Gillian I figure tavel time from Endicott to be about 4 1/2 hr. is this close (I live in town of Maine).
Gilligan

I beleive its about 240 miles from Endicott and 4.5 hrs sounds about right, Sluggo will give you exact if he catches this message. I come from 1 hour south of Olean NY.
Sluggo will be at Theatre Motel in Westfield, not sure whether I'll be there or in camper. We will be doing most of our pretournament pleasure fishing out of Barcelona.. about 15-20 miles west of Dunkirk.

Sorry, Gilligan, you are NOT in. We thought that "Sluggo" was a nickname for Ginger or Mary Ann. Since that is not the case, you two can wet your nitecrawlers elsewhere!

Hey Arrowhead..I live in Endwell and make the drive to Barcelona quite often. It takes us 4-1/2 hrs. to Barcelona. Dunkirk is about another half hour. Do you do any walleye fishing locally? Shoot me an e-mail..jstack5478@aol.com. Good Fishing, Sluggo (Chris)
