JonnyBoy Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 What can i say, i love to fish! i was a born fisherman, ever since 5 years old i've been fishing. my hometown where i was born and raised is culpeper Virginia, a small town not too far away (maybe 90 mins) from our capitol Richmond. as a younger boy i used to go to alot of local rivers and whatnot with my father and we'd fish for hours. over time i developed a larger interest and a deeper love for the sport. currently im 22 years old and am starting my season a bit early this year, i hit the water in late February and attended my first tournament last Monday, March the 8th. i love to fish just about anywhere theres water and i've had certain amounts of personal success in my life but i have yet to catch that bass i've always dreamed about. my personal record for LMB is 5lb 9oz. on another note nowadays i enjoy hitting alot of the local lakes and private ponds more so than the rivers anymore, although the Rappahannock river here has some prize small mouth to be caught! tournaments have really caught my interest this year and i enjoy the competition so i plan on being involved in alot more of them. top water lures and among that particular style is probably my favorite way to fish, theres nothing like seeing that bust the surface to get what its going for! i love this sport, live fore the sport, and cant stay away from the water. born as a fisherman, i'll die a proud fisherman! lol.

drmnbig Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 I'll be the first to officially welcome you! I used to do a lot of work when the construction was booming over near Culpeper and drooled over a couple of ponds and small lakes over there. If you ever get a chance to head in the the valley let me know and we'll hook up for a few hours of fishing. Quote
