DDAAAMMNNN!!! those are some nice fish!!!

the 5.53 (left, if looking that the pic) My buddy in the pics is the one who caught both of them.. the 5.53 is his Personal Best.. it was awesome to watch him and be there to see his reaction..

here are our 2 biggest fish in a tourny 2 weekends ago... the biggest (left) went 5.53 and the other was over 4.

if your out there this weekend, or anytime.. look for me.. i have a 201 stratos pro xl... w/ a 250 VMax.. im one of the only boats out there w/ a 250... ME: My Boat: Say Hi, if you see me out there..

yea.. i agree.. this year i have just started fishing my strengths and not fish so much "by the boooks" and it has paid off... tremendously!! this lake is so different than any lake in the country.... so the books dont even matter n e way.. i concentrate my fishing on the dirtier water.. which is from James Creek up..

this is my lake! STAY OFF!! haha last weekend and this past week. i have caught 4 fish over 5 lbs...and numerous smaller ones. this lake is nothing like any other lake in the country.. have fun trying to figure it out.. its very hard.. Ill be out sat (pre fishing) then have a tournament sunday out of 7 points launch.

we shoulda done better robby... but thats fishing! Maybe you'll switch over to the bait that is working, a lil sooner next tournament... haha fyi... i was robby's boater.. for those wondering..

Everyone's resumes do look the same online. Thats obvious, but I do several things to actual hard copies that I send to sponsors that shows what makes me different than that other 1000's of resumes they see. I put little things that show my personality and my character. I show that I'm young, determined, and very energetic. Thanks for your input though. I put my resume up, just to get my name out there, get feedback from, and maybe just getting myself in the door with potential sponsors.

Hey Everyone, Here is my resume. Let me know what you think of it and my site. www.derrickhughes.net Thanks!
