I was branded with my site name by an old tournament partner. During a tournament one day, we had been going on with each other like on Saturday Night Live: The Timster, Timorama, The Timinator(my old nickname). Anyway, long story short, I was throwing micros sight fishing, when what I though was a log came flying up at my bait. I set the hook like my son was getting chowed on by jaws himself! The slab was huge, but that didn't stop him from flying through the air, and off of my jig! The 1st thing out of my partner's mouth was my web name. It has stuck for years, but I really just go by "The Rippa" for short. Incidently, I dubbed him with the name Tree Trimmer! LOL!
You can probably guess why!
By the way, FATBOY, two of us would make a pretty good front line!
