Hey Pat, great looking picture of you at Pineview on page B8 of the Tribune.

How did the reporter do the interview - the yelling method or did he call you on your cell...?

I couldn't find a link to your picture at the trib but I guess going out later in the day by yourself has it's exposure!!

How many copies of the paper has tubebabe bought?

[cool]Some of us want justice. Others want mercy. The guy wanted a closeup...until he saw me close up. Didn't wanna ruin his camera equipment.
He was running around up on the top of the hill and was yelling something at me. I ignored him so he came down and walked along the shoreline closer to where I was fishing. Again, with traffic noise it was hard to understand him. I yelled that I would probably be getting out within a half hour or so and he came back and walked down to where I was getting out of my tube. He said that he had a couple of good pics he wanted to publish and wanted my name. Misspelled it after 3 or 4 careful repetitions.
I couldn't find a link to the pic either. I will try again in a day or so. Sometimes the small features and photos do not get uploaded into the index for a while.
The only reason TubeBabe would buy extra papers is to use them for whacking me when I get out of line...or don't mind her. It's a dog's life. And when she saw the picture...after I told her I was doing volunteer work at the VA...I was BUSTED.

[cool][#0000ff]Brett Prettyman, outdoor writer for the Trib, was able to get me a digital copy of the pic.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Kinda creative, with the golden glow of the rocks creating an interesting lighting effect on the water. The guy in the tube almost spoils the picture.[/#0000ff]

[#008000]That must be your third or fourth famous 15 by now. It's probably appropriate to plead for mercy before it gets any more serious.[/#008000]
[#008000][/#008000]
[#008000]Don't ask me though, I plan on extending this 15 for you by some unknown factor - by telling everyone I can find that I know that Dude in the Tube. [/#008000]
[#008000][/#008000]
[#008000]Your welcome.[/#008000]

Nice TD. You look like a focused fisherman and someone I wouldn't want to mess with. Tubebabe should be proud.

[cool][#0000ff]As a matter of fact, I do believe in paying attention to the job at hand...fishing. Results in more fish.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]But, big and mean-looking does not always equate to difficult. Those who DO know me will verify that I ain't hard to get along with...as long as I get my own way.[/#0000ff]
