I really would enjoy hearing Marc marcantonio talk about jerkbait fishing on both westside and east side lakes ..

I would also like to hear Ron do a seminar about fishing Jig~n~pig on both sides of the state .

Mark im looking forward to hear you talk about Finesse rigs , I really want you to key in on the proper way to set the hook in relation to the Flick shake, neko rigs , shakey heads...

It would be kinda cool to hear Floyd talk about conservation efforts across the state ..lol

This is my wish list dude :-)

So Mark am I available?

While your booking my seminars would you mind getting me about 125K dollars so that I can fish the FLW Tour as well!

Thanks Mark much appreciated-
Ron

I would love to see someone do a seminar on locating fish. We all have our spots that we fish regualarly, but I don't know that everyone understands why the fish are or arn't there on any given day. Maybe something to do with seasonal/weather conditions and changes.

A focus on breaking down new bodys of water would be cool.

Ron,
Didn't have your booking fee's handy to give to Mr. Brennan of O'laughlins sporting shows. He asked If I had your's and Marc's phone numbers, which I didn't and said he would be calling you guys later in the week. I assumed he has called you, but we all know what the mother of all f*ck ups is. ass u me . Any ways I was just trying to get some feed back from guys to see what they wanted to hear.
As to getting u a $125K upfront, we could work something out like they do on WSOP, where u have to split any winnings with me.

Is that before or after the seminar on flying pigs?

Phil Mehrtens said:

How about a seminar on how we as a bass fishing community need to stick together and get along.

i attended some of these last year and remember most of them were just regurgetations of articles that i have read in Bassmaster
I don't remember names but do remember a few items that seemed off. One was there was a kid no more than 20 who spoke as if he had 50 years of experiience, which was not credible to me.
the other was someone was talking about using a swivel on a dropshot rig, however, Aaron Martens (who practically introdued this technique to the US) never uses a swivel on the video he released about dropshotting, and i have never seen a swivel on Bassmasters or FLW shows either.
I'm just not sure these seminars are providing sound techniques or just someone's opinion.
How do I tell the differnce between the two?

like i said, some kid less than 20, and someone who talked about a swivel on their dropshot, i previously mentioned i ddidn't remember names

Which one did you attend? I went two the one in Puyallup and ALL of the speakers were awesome.Also they were all local guys who have alot time on the lakes here and on the eastside.I would have rather seen these guys then to listen to someone who has never fished here. Pat said:

"i attended some of these last year and remember most of them were just regurgetations of articles that i have read in Bassmaster"

Maybe you have it backwards, Pat; maybe Bassmaster is a regurgitation of some of the speakers! The article about using Ice Jigs is a case in point.

I did some of the seminars at the show last year, including a couple on dropshotting. I can assure you that I did not talk about using a swivel because I don't; and I can assure you I have also fished a dropshot longer than anyone on the pro tour including long before Aaron Martins; but that doesn't even make my information necessarily useful to you. My point is that you can often learn something from everyone, and tour credentials don't necessarily equate to learning valuable information.

Dez, if I am asked to speak at the show and if they make it worth my while to take the time away from family, sponsors, and fishing, I promise I will cover some jerkbait info for you, as well as crankbait info.

ciao,
Marc Marcantonio
