Going to do my best to make it out. I have a rod that needs some fixin' too, so hopefully I can get that done as well.

Hate to be the guy to ask but is this a BYOB type thing?

[gritsnham]

Hey all this looks like a fun an educational event...is this event still on?

Looked on the thorn bros HSOforum and they didnt have any infor about this listed at all!

[RK]

It's most definitely still on. It is on the TB HSOforum in their events forum.

Really looking forward to this...

Cheers,

I'm also planning on bringing a muskie rod that could use some cork work. Rod builders will be on hand for this correct? I'd like to drop it off Saturday so that it is hopefully ready by the spring sale.

[Cecil]

I'm sure someone in the rod area from Thorne will be working Saturday...

Hope to see many of you at Thorne Bros. tomorrow. Putting the finishing touches on my seminar, and sorting out some goodies to give away.

Sounds like the weather's going to be cruddy. Good day to be inside and talk some fishing....

I am planning on being there.

Planning on being there with at least one of my sons, he caught some nice bass on a "catch and release" lake last summer, We need to learn how to catch them on a real lake!I know the fish wasn't being held properly - another young man on the dock held it for him - he was a little imtimidated by the fish....

[Cecil]

Enjoy! Hope everyone has a blast tmrw. If you get bored and want to save me from Walleye talk, feel free to stop by the big C.

[thatoneguy]

can't miss seeing my brother - hope erryone has a great time!

Great seminars today guys. Thanks for sharing! I think I may give drop shotting a fair shake this year.

Wayne, Deitz, Rob and Ray:

Thanks for sharing your "Know-how" with the rest of us. Very nice meeting all of you and being able to put a face to the name.

I personally picked up some new information as well as different perspectives on various things. One thing in paricular: Fish hitting a lure before it has time to reach bottom and heading away with it. Myself, I've always thought of that as being a sign of a big fish if they moved away (especially towards deep water) rather than a competitive thing due to more bass in the area. I like your guys' parspective, and I'll try to stick around a little longer the next time this happens.

Thanks again!

Great time at the seminar. My fiancee got better perspective on things and did learn some things. Rob's info. on smallies was great.

[MudPuppy77]

I also want to thank Wayne, Deitz, Rob, and Ray for sharing their knowlege! It was a great day to spend indoors building my bass fishing knowlege base. I did want to head to the lake right afterwards but I sorted my tacklebox instead. Not much of a comparison but it will do for now.

Thanks!

I'll add my thanks as well for the workshop-nice to put some faces on some of the names I see on the site. Thanks to Thorne Bros too -got a few more goodies for the upcoming season.

I would like to say thanks for sharing Wayne, Deitz, Ray and Rob....and thanks to Thorne Bros for the sales you had.

[Deitz Dittrich]

What a great day.. Kudos to all who came and asked such great questions. A seminar really is only as good as its listeners. IT was great to be able to put faces to names, and I look forward to seeing a few of you on the water next year for sure.

I dont see why there would not be a 2nd event next year with as positive as this one felt. Thank you all.

T-Brothers also did a great job accommodating us, especially on such a busy time of the year for them. Please if your in the neighborhood the last weekend of the month, stop by for their big spring sale. If you have a shimano reel, you can bring it and one of the shimano techs will help you clean the reel for free.

[Wayne Ek]

Big thanks to Thorne Bro. for hosting the seminars. What a great store. It was fun to put a face to a name. The day went by in the snap of a finger. I think a spring seminar is a good idea.

[RK]

Hiya -

Very enjoyable day yesterday. Thanks to everyone who came out, Ray, Deitz and Wayne for great seminars, and Thorne Bros. for being great hosts, as always. Wayne's absolutely right - the day flew by.

I really hope we can make this an annual event.

Thanks again to all who participated.

Cheers,

Rob Kimm

Well planned. It's nice to see have actual bass seminars as it's not often there are many bass seminars. I would have liked to stay for the open forum, but i ended up having to go to work.

[Timmy D]

Yep, great info and well planned. Great job guys!!! It is awesome you guys are willing to share your knowledge and experiences. Hopefully, this will become a regular event!
