Indeed, we have been at it for a year now! Courtesy of Triton Boats and Mercury Outboards, Kent Brown hooked up with us a year ago this month to create Ultimate Bass University here at Gone Fishin' Marine.
The Ultimate Bass radio host has been the king of the social hill bringing in some of the greatest anglers the West has to offer. The likes of Gary Dobyns, Bub Tosh, RJ Bennett, Mark Lassagne, Tony Franceschi, Preston Henson, Russ Graves, Gene Buchholz, and most recently, Zack Thompson have graced our showroom floor.
We've covered topics all over the map (literally- Tony Franceschi committed the enitre topology of Clear Lake to memory) for our local water, new techniques (punch, punch, punch says Bub Tosh), electronics (Kent loves the new beeps that come with the Lowrance HDS/Structure Scan
units). We've given away thousands of dollars in free raffles every month. We've taken a boat load of donations for the CBAF's Toys for the Troops' Kids tournament and toy drive.
Best of all? We've built a great community of good anglers and outstanding people that we look forward to seeing every month! (Really, how many other events can boast Rio Linda Frank as a regular??)
The greatest things about the Anniversary Edition of Ultimate Bass University:
- Dave Sisti brought the makings for pulled pork sandwiches.... There were no left-overs, suffice it to say!
- Zack Thompson knows his stuff. He could have gone on for two more hours and still would have had us all riveted. Besides that, he's just a heckuva nice fellow!
- All kinds of kids attended with their parents- we can't wait until the next generation is ready to get outfitted for a lifetime of angling!
- Rich Thiel was so generous- he donated a guided trip on the delta to a lucky raffle winner!
- Birthday cake...
- ...and ice cream.
We'll see you for the next Ultimate Bass University on JUNE 15th!!!
