Gussy's gonna make the cut!

Jeff Gustafson "Gussy" from Kenora is in 13th with onl a few to weigh in at FLW even in Florida! Awesome stick and good friend hanging with the big guns!

[CAMAN]

That's awesome, good luck to him!

He must be getting some odd looks with that Lund in a bass tournament!

[CAMAN]

See he finished the day in 40th with 15-02. That was quite a few left to way in.

[swampbuck]

That was yesterday he ended up 18th gets to fish tomorrow for the big money

[CAMAN]

Oh, wow, guess I wasn't paying attention to the date, that's a nice one day jump. Just checked and they finally posted day 2's results. 34-04, unfortunately the leader Randall Tharp has 63-13. They probably don't zero out the weights tomorrow do they?

[Ray Esboldt]

That is way cool. Thanks for the update, John.

Awesome job Gussy!

While watching the weigh-ins online, I couldn't help but think my priorities are all wrong. First week of February and we're open water fishing, suntanned, and wearing shorts in Florida?

Very impressive debut on FLW. Looks like it was tough on day 3. I'm guessing a little bit of "swing for the fences approach." Roland and Scott Martin didn't catch a limit on day 3 either. Nothing to lose and everything to gain for Gussy. Congrats on the great debut!

[swampbuck]

Yeah he swung! Proud of him for it nothing to lose couldnt finish lower than he did and didnt matter as far as money he had a good spot to catch schooling fish 1-2 lbers pretty quick but he went for a mega bag flipping. He could have spent an hour or two getting his small limit as he did the first two days then went flipping but he made the call to try to get the big bites cant make a big move if you dont gamble sometimes. Pretty impressive to go down there to totally new water and have that kind of showing! that being Said Gussy is probably the best angler I know from up north! He can figure them out and catch them. He was fishing within site of the leaders so he found the right area, just didnt get the big bites he needed.

Very very happy for Gussy. Definitely one of the "good guys" in the business, which in the long run is way more important than catching fish. In his case, he can sure catch them too. Very good start to his career with the FLW. Guys on that trail may not know him yet, but anyone who fishes the KBI, SBO or other major events in CA surely does.

Cheers,

Excited to see how he does this year out there. Great guy and perfect for TV/Promotions. And not to mention, can flat out catch em. Excited to see how he does on Detroit River too!
