You know folks, if I was the head fisherman in the world, I would give a big attaboy award to to Bob Hinkle also known in these parts as Snake River. That man can definitely design plastic baits for Bluegill and Crappie which is my kind of fishing. Not only that, but if you ever get a chance to talk with him, you will find that he is extremely knowledgeable and very humble. I like how he answers your questions without putting you down or making you feel like you asked a dumb question. He is always helping other members here on c.c whether it be from painting tube heads to Jilly Jigs his methods work. I just wanted to publically say that he is appreciated and if Ed has a crappie.com man of the year award that he should consider giving it to Snake. If Ed does not have a Crappie.com man of the year award he should start one and give it to Snake.

Pappy and Skip should also be given awards as they are extremely helpful too. That is what makes this forum the greatest in the world.

Thank you Bob for all that you do. Be Blessed.
