I have to say the Worm pouring day was an absolute success. I got to meet a lot of the guys and put faces to names. It was an absolute blast and I learned a ton. I can't wait to get started myself.
Just a little update to the guys that were present - you can now store all your recipes in The Angler's Genie so you can get rid of your notepad.
Josh - you copy those pages yet for a backup?
Hope the poker went as well as the worms.

Sounds like I missed out. I would have really liked to attend: poker, worm pouring, misc. banter, computer nuts and bolts with Genie, man..... I did get to catch my first bass yesterday though on our anniversary trip on the Tennessee River. Our anniversary was on WD1-Worm Day 1. Wonder if the wife will like that association. Maybe I won't bring it up.

I went to his house Sunday while he was fishing (jerk) and took a bunch of stuff. I completely forgot to grab that recipe book so I could transcribe it for him. I'm an idiot!!! I had the perfect oportunity.
Glad to see you and the rest of the guys there! Had a blast. Sorry I missed most of the midday activities. I was busy playing dad for a couple hours.
Oh for goodness sakes, I forgot to steal the LureCraft book too. /sigh my trip was not as successful yesterday as I thought.

Thanks to all the guys that showed up.
We had a great time, we shared lots of ideas and stories. We even had a five gallon bucket of water and tested out our different baits with a drop shot rig and wacky rig.
It is usually after a good story and a laugh that I tell everyone that ever steps foot into my pole barn, "This is the reason I do this... to get my buddies together and just have a good time."
We succeeded again.
Genie... no! I haven't yet, but I'll buy a "Genie" and be sure to use it.
Thanks to everyone that was there.
Brian M., Doug, Dan, Scott, Jack, John, Brian S., Russ, Brandon, My Dad, Scott F. and me.... joshimoto son ;D
I also had a great time meeting all of you and pouring worms. I didnt think I would like it all that much but I had a fun time. Thanks for having us and I would love to do it again.
Josh:
thanx fo rthe hospitality and good company - very informative and educational to see the masters in action. The bucket test was fun as well - you guys wouldn't beleive the differences in poured vs various mfg brands of baits - try it for yourself.
Who ended up winning the $$$ at poker - I know it wasn't me - lol.

WPD Group,
I have my hot plate, pans, etc. and am ready to get started this weekend. I have the barn all cleared out and am ready to setup shopt and see what I can come up with.
When I got the stuff from Lurecraft, they gave me a color recipe to start with ... already have it entered in The Angler's Genie so it is backed up (Josh!!!). :P
Thanks again for showing me how to get started. Check the West Michigan news to see if any barns burn down over the weekend. ;D
