[#0000FF]Well, Chuck, you have knowed me longer than a lot of other BFTers, and you doubtless remember my tales of being a tournament bass chaser in my early years. I think that was what did it for me and contests. Ruint me forever. When the thrill of the chase (normal fishing) is replaced by a pathological and/or larcenous desire for beating others...or fighting it out for cash...then it is not really the kind of peaceful contemplative experience I prefer.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]I have studiously avoided being a part of most of the other assorted contests on BFT. But since I get the blame/credit for helping create a lot of the current crop of cataholics on the board I felt somewhat honor-bound to join in the fray. I put in a little work to at least appear respectable in the standings, but since I am more of a multi-species kinda guy I just don't put in the time and effort that the front-runners do. Love to see the competition and the passion. But it just ain't for me. (Sound enough like a loser?)[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]By the way, I thoroughly enjoy seeing your posts now that you have returned to the fold.
