Too far for me. I will have traveled way too much this year. How about Champlain? I have tournaments two of those weekends.

We should have a booth for SUF and the sponsored anglers should man the booth to promote the SUF school. ;-) if you like this idea give it a like 👍:-)

I like cork because it is light, lasts a long time, especially with Cork Sealer applied to it, and is generally a bit more sensitive, EVA is comfortable but is a bit less sensitive. Bluegill SlingBladez with a minnnner -- Yeah Baby!!! That cork handled 7' MH Fast is a nice rod. I like it. It seems similar to the Genesis.

Good Job Ken Pfeiffer! It was a good trip. 

That is how it goes. I learned a lot about the St Lawrence in the last 3 days and will be more prepared for the next trip.

My suggestion- Instead of using screws to hold the wood to the deck and the black box to the wood use small flat head bolts with washers and it will hold for years. IMO those screws will loosen up on the first few good bumps.

St. Lawrence is in the books. Not quite the finish I was hoping for, and I got a bunch of points for the Regional. I lost two excellent fish and ended up with three fish for the day and lots of points for the regional. Sitting in 47th in points.
