I send out April Fools memos to my bass club members.
This year the memo said that PETA was going to put tranquilizers in Buggs Island the day of our tournament and also take photos of the guys relieving themselves off the side of the boat.
I added that the Virginia and North Carolina state police plus the local sheriff departments would be out trying to stop the PETA people.
Guys took it hook, line and sinker.
One guy was going to bring his shotgun; another was gong to put a big saltwater lure on a rod and attack the PETA people when he saw them; another was going to take his pistol; and one guy was ready to beat up the PETA individuals if they came to our weigh in.
I thought it was a great joke.
The previous year I sent out a memo telling the guys to go to Green Top for a free bottle of "Fart" fish attractant. You can guess at what I had in that memo.
Even their wives thought it was funny especially when I said that "if you "Fart" all day while fishing you will catch more bass."
Working on next year's memo at this time. ;D ;D ;D
