    That's pretty cool. I'm not much of a bass fisherman but getting shots with KVD and Clunn is top knotch. I do enjoy watching those boys fishing the tournaments on TV -- more so than when I have tourney fishermen fishing around me.

    Congrats on a neat Father's Day!

    Hey Greg that is cool. You are going to have to get that boy some sun glasses. Or is he winking at you saying he is a better fisherman than Kevin? LOL. Two of the best right there for green carp.

    Thumbs up

    It sure is great when folks of Clunn's and KVD's reputation take time to make a boy's day. It speaks volumes about their class. I ain't a bass boy but I watch and take notes on everything they put on TV, most of it works on other species including our favorite species. They are true master fishermen.

    That is just too cool !
    I like seeing that these guys are that approachable and show that much class. I have heard that those two are two of the nicest guys on the circuit.

    I always make my purchases of products that are endorsed by people like that.

    P.S. thats why I never buy anything endorsed by Bill Dance.

    Oh, buy the way, happy fathers day to all.
    I got to spend mine fishing with my family at Walnut Point.

    We met KVD in a store in Louisiana when we were fishing Toledo Bend three years ago. He was headed to Texas for a bass tournament. He spent 20 to 30 minutes autographing anything guys could find to have him sign off on. He put his name on a lot of tee shirts. I had him autograph a crappie cap which I apologized for when I handed it to him. He just smiled and wrote his name.

    After I talked to you at KY Lake Sunday I talked to and took some more pictures with some more of the pros. I was suprised at how nice ALL of these guys were. If anyone gets a chance to go to one of these Elite Series tournements..... go. It's great show. My Dad and I went down and stayed and fished all 4 days the tournement was going on. It was pretty cool to see them on the water and to talk with them. We caught a ton of fish, no crappie......just large mouth and small mouth.
