Simp Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 (edited) Ok guys let me give you guys a introduction to Fishing Rhino. He's a mans man. He's the Dos Equis's guy but from New England. He's the guy you want to talk to if your struggling out on the lake. The last two years at the roadtrip he's gladly shared all his spots with others, and told them everything they wanted or NEEDED to know. At Pickwick he showed up not only with his bass boat but with a large canoe strapped to his roof of his truck because he didn't want anybody to not have a boat to fish in. Everybody had a ride but this man drove thousands of miles with this thing because he cared that much about his fellow bass resource members. The good lord has shown his gratitude by giving Rhino a 6lb smallie at the Pickwick roadtrip in 2010 and this one at Ky/Barkley Roadtrip of 2011. So plan to make it to Roadtrip 2012 if you want to meet great men and women like him. Edited December 9, 2011 by Simp 1 Quote
Super User Fishing Rhino Posted December 9, 2011 Super User Posted December 9, 2011 Simp as usual, exaggerates greatly. Thanks to his dad for making this video on his cell phone, and to Simp. As for the Dos Equis guy, Simp and his dad put him to shame. As far as interesting goes, they've got him beat hands down. I mean, how can two guys who showed up at Pickwick with their glorified jon boat, sporting headlights not be interesting. Last year they disappointed me by showing up with a doggone fiberglass, full fledged bass boat. The hicks from the sticks meet civilization. Oh, and by the way, Simp's dad outfished me on the day he captured this video. If we hadn't caught a fish, it would still have been a great day. Had a blast meeting many of the members. Steezy, Roadwarrior, Glenn and Mrs. Glenn, Big O, Scrutch, Uncle Leo, Long Mike, Alpster, Ghoti, Mike the jig guy, Bassin Sargent and Bassin Soldier (anyone know where they are now?) Lund Explorer, Ken, and all the others. Looking forward to seeing all of you again, and meeting others for the first time. Don't miss it. You'll have memories to last you for the rest of your life. Maybe you're just starting out fishing, and think you won't fit in. You couldn't be more wrong. I don't think there was an ego in the bunch. Just because RW and Big O always look like they're ready for a photo shoot for GQ doesn't mean they are not as down to earth as everyone else. Hey, after all, someone has to add a bit of class to our motley crew, and it sure ain't gonna be me. 1 Quote

Super User Fishing Rhino Posted December 9, 2011 Super User Posted December 9, 2011 Simp's dad is really a character. If I had to liken him to someone, it would be this guy. Not so much in appearance, but in exuberance. He is always wound up, ready to go. If he's around, you know it by his laughter. I told Eric that he was just like this guy from the Axe Men show. We made a five mile run on Barkley at nearly top speed, into a breeze with a small chop. Eric was whooping and hollering almost all the way. The thing he said that I'll always remember was, "This is why I love riding in bass boats", followed by exuberant laughter. Quote
Super User Lund Explorer Posted December 10, 2011 Super User Posted December 10, 2011 Sorry Tom, but I think the Big O nailed it with the title of Gentleman. Fortunately, I know you've got what it takes to live up to it. Quote
