Hey everyone...it's been awhile, eh? It's gotta be more than a year or two since I've last posted. I'm retired from 30yrs in the papermill and now working for BDO Canada LLP. I joined the tournament trail this summer for both walleye and bass and am having an absolute blast competing again. We haven't cashed any cheques yet, but it sure can be humbling. Just because one has success at weekend fishing doesn't mean you can compete with the seasoned tourney guys! How's everyone been? I will be more diligent and check back in to see what's up! Take care all...

Good to have you back and glad ypu are enjoying your "tournament" adventures--Hope to see you on TV someday.

Hi Wayne, glad to hear your enjoying being semi retired. If you got the time head south on I81 make a right on rt. 20 and come over to seneca lake for the fingerlakes meet.

HAHA seems like that should be just a hop-skip-jump away, wellsley!

Hello WW,... Congrats on the retirement. I am living with my parents in Clinton, Mo. for now. They each have medical issues.
Still fishing and doing rod/reel repair as well. Hope we can meet someday.

Hello Steven and thanks. Great to read that you're still here and getting in some fishing between rod/reel repairs!

Good to hear from you Wayne!

Havne't even had an email from you in the last year

Now that you're retired...I HOPE you can find time to bring your happy azz down to the La Crosse Meet. You could also hole up here at my place for a few days and we could chase some walleyes on the 26,000+ acres of Lake Pepin

GADZOOKS MAN!!! How yah been Dave? The LaCrosse meet was and is still on the "things to do" list for me. When next I expect to be in your neighborhood, I will be sure to call first. Great to hear from you!

Yup stop in at the Lacrosse meet always a good time!

Where's Everyone Been???
Not here that's for sure. This site is about as dead as dead can be.
This old site ain't what it used to be, ain't what it use to be.

Sorry to say for NAFC's sake, but most members went to another fishing site!

Howdy, Wayne and you other long-timers! just delving a little deeper than usual on this overcast day. might still sneak out a little later to one of the local water-holes. The job is turning into a near-hostile work environment with all the new programs they want us working on with no increase in help. I definitley look forward to my time on the water and seeing my new granddaughter! Good luck to you all in your fishing and non-fishing endeavors

Congrats on the new granddaughter, Pillman

by the way, how's that baseball playing son of yours doing, Wayne?

Hi WW been awhile EH......good to see ya back buddy !!!!
