Brian Latimer,
I hope it is not too late, but I am tossing my hat into the ring or the Angler Development Program. I am not intending to fish the typical tournament scene this year. I was going to but all the clubs and what not had tournaments on all the weekends I am scheduled to work. So instead I am looking forward to taking a different approach in expanding my bass fishing abilities.
This year I intend to compete in the SUF tournaments and other online tournaments. And possibly joining the KBF scene as well. But I am most excited about it is. I am also going to attempt to complete the Georgia Bass Slam. There are 10 species of black bass in Georgia. If you catch 5 of the 10 you get special recognition and small prizes. I am wanting to go above and beyond and catch all 10 species. This school will definitely help me in that process from both past and future breakdowns and workshops. I am really looking forward to exploring new bodies of water and catching my first Smallmouth. Not to mention try to catch a trophy Shoal Bass and possibly even catch state records for the bass that have none listed.
If selected it will be an honor to represent the school and all the services it provides. Thank you for your consideration.
M. Dennis
