I registered for the BASS Open today as a Co angler...Hopefully I get in...  Anyone else get signed up???

Josh, I will be expecting you to show me the ropes down there since you are the seasoned pro in these opens.......   It should be a good time...

[LAPORTE]

I signed up as a CO as well, just got off the phone and ready to fish... It's gonna be a long wait though...

Don L

[markgoetsch]

I signed up as a boater and I can't wait!!

[djkimmel]

Come and watch?!!!!!!!!...C'mon dust off those rods and get out there.....   

I am going to have to drag you out for a Team Tournament or something this year...You can't stay holed up in Lansing watching the river pass you by....

Change of subject...But....Is Famous Taco still open???  I need to get over there for some of their Burritos...

Things are not the same at some of the Famous Taco locations. Bankruptcy and a couple renames seem to have gone hand in hand with food changes. I think the original owners still own them in some capacity. I haven't been to the location DD posted in a while.

There are several new places, but the ones a I REALLY like have been around a while also. Al Dacos on South Cedar St near the I-96 interchange and Meijers - excellent food with a great buffet.

And El Sombreros just down the block from my house (the effect this has on my waistline is readily apparent) just South of the Mary Ave corner on Martin Luther King Blvd (M-99). They know my wife by my voice when she calls... that is a couple miles South of I-496. Being part Mexican on my Stepfather's side, I know my Mexican food!

As far as fishing, I could use a few more trips, but I'm working on that (44 days until Brazil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ssshhhh don't get me started yet)

[River Rat]

Was anyone else surprised that when you register they are not able to tell you how far down the list you are like FLW does?!  I just thought it was odd that they don't have a database with a numerical reference... Anyways, I may be a Co or sitting on a park bench next to Dan waving bye-bye as you guys head out.

I wonder if the Famous Taco that DD posted is the same one I used to ride my bike to back in middle school...

with them not having there internet sign up running i think they got completely slammed and they are suppose to send out notifications next week. Moto look forward to seeing down there this coming august. Anyone down for the southern open on the Big O in january?

[BryanP]

I entered Tuesday on the pro side and was told it's not full, and they have a lot more pros than co's.

Sounds good...I am going to try to do all 3 in 2011...I just couldn't swing the time off this year....The only way I could do it is not to fish any other tournaments...That wouldn't be much fun...

[LAPORTE]

I just got my letter today.. I'm in as a co !!!!  Funny how you have to fill out an application and send it back....

[motocross269]

I got mine too...

bryanP,just wondering if you entered them all or just one...wondering if you can just get into 1
last year i got into just the chesapeake bay tournament (it was an  aewsomeley good time)

[River Rat]

I received my confirmation in the mail earlier this week, too.  Here's keeping the fingers crossed for a good draw!

[BryanP]

I entered just the one event.  I called BASS today and they have 107 pros confirmed, with 49 more on the wait list.  As of now I'm 25 on the wait list.  So they need co-anglers.

[gr@ssmonkey]

thanks bryanP keep us updated....tring to gather funds to fish it myself....boater would be nice but co-angler if thats all i can afford

[motocross269]

Monkey...It is a pretty good payout for Cos and a chance to win a boat...

Bryan I will start working on some Co anglers hopefully we can fill the field...Do you think the big time pros wait to commit?
