My boat is jealous of all the other boats that are able to get out on the water.

You're absolutely right about the healing power of being outside and on the water. For me, nothing compares to the peace of being outdoors—it's real therapy where I can use all 5 of my senses. As a Navy veteran, I find the bond of military brotherhood hard to match. The fishing community is a good but we usually don't need each other to ensure we live another day.

Brian Latimer  - I would love to be considered for the BFL sponsorship program as a boater. I've loved being part of the SUF School family since almost day one, and the transformation in my tournament fishing has been incredible. Thank You! I consistently finished second to last or middle of the pack in club tournaments when I started. Through SUF School's guidance and countless hours of learning, I started climbing the ranks, winning tournaments, and earning Angler of the Year. What a memorable year! THANKS!

One thing that drives me is embracing the rookie mindset - being uncomfortable leads to growth. That's exactly what I did with tournament fishing, and it's what I want to do with BFLs. I'm ready to carry this 2024 momentum into 2025 while helping others grow by promoting SUF school and bringing my BFL experience back to the community.

Whether sponsored or not, I'll represent SUF in the BFLs Northern Division, and I'd love the opportunity to do it officially. I want to compete and give back to the SUF family, which has transformed my fishing journey. Let me know how I can help expand SUF's impact and help more anglers develop their skills on the water. I'm all in!

Love this! Whether sponsored or not, I'd love to represent the SUF School on the boater side in the Angler Development Program. (Sponsored would be better, ;-)) And hey, Ken, as co-angler, we could link up for the Potomac! We could wrap my boat with the Angler Development Program logo and do it up right! 😄 I would be honored to carry the SUF banner and represent our fishing family on the tournament trail. Learning and growing with support is the best part.
