What's New?
Rick Kedik was the only angler with a limit which earned him first place in the Michiana Singles Thursday nighter last week at Hudson Lake.
If you're reading this, you probably remember your first fish and its impact on your life. Most anglers get their start early on in their lives and the reason is because somebody decided to take them fishing. It's always fun to introduce someone to fishing and the "take a kid fishing" mantra has been stated for years, but the important part is to make the experience enjoyable and catch fish.
New Gear
Abu Garcia has added a new model to the Zenon spinning selection with the Zenon X.
This new model fills the gap by offering the flexibility to fish lightweight finesse style baits while also providing the power to handle heavier baits when needed.

KVD InterviewingIn a recent column, How to become a bass pro, I outlined what you have to do to become a skilled competitor at the highest level.
But theres more to being a successful pro than being a good angler.
You have to be a good businessman with a long-term plan; never get ahead of yourself and put your family or career in jeopardy by doing too much too quickly.
Ive seen many great anglers who came on tour without an understanding of the business side. They didnt survive because they couldnt weather the financial ups-and-downs everyone faces early on.
