I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

Congrats to Nemesis Baits Pro Staff member Skip Johnson for his second consecutive DK Open Victory.  Way to go Skip!



McCarter himself :-\'

Skip Johnson

Thank you Brian
Actualy that fish isnt the 6-2 from the DK open, I cought that 6-10  on monday along with a 6-4 and several heavy fish in the high 5's for 29 plus lbs...NO B.S. I HAVE A WITNESS AND THE PICS!

there was no roland martin stretched arm trick photography done there and I think its a great pic.

That 6-10 is the weight from the golden rule board and I feel confident saying it was heavier than the largemouth conversion on the golden rule board but Im happy with 6-10, its my biggest smallmouth to date and I figure it was more like 7 lbs but again I cant complain about a legit 6-10.

my partner held the fish in the water while I grabbed the camera and the fish wasnt put on my scale becouse I didnt want to risk that fish not going back to its bed, I put it right back on top of its bed, Id like to see big brooders like that finnish protecting the future giants in the gene pool.

heres a pic from the DK open
Go Big or Go Home!

Man you really know how to whack 'em out there skip.  On a day when it was tough to get 15 lbs you go out there and kill 'em.  That's impressive, hats off to you!

Good job Skippy!!!     :D      ;)

Consecutive
Adjective
1. One after the other; "back-to-back home runs".

2. In regular succession without gaps; "serial concerts".

3. Successive (without a break); "sick for five straight days".

Adverb
1. In a consecutive manner; "we numbered the papers consecutively".



Consecutive wins would mean one after another.
While this was Skip's second win and very impressive, I believe the only member to date to have consecutive wins is........ let's see now........... pause pause pause....... OH YES!

That would be MadWags 2008 Spring and Fall DK Open consecutive wins.  :P

Ok ok I was boater on Clair and non boater on Hardy Dam Pond, but still.  ::)

:-*Just remember that McCarter.  ;D

Original song and lyrics by "MadWags"

What's with the news these days on the TV and the radio. Can't find the truth amongst the lies. Some talking head that claims to live their life in a better way, says I have to compromise. But now there's something on the rise. Truth has opened up my eyes. There's no running from your dirty lies. You can't avoid the truth. I'll no longer close my eyes.

Skip Johnson

hahaha your right Dave, my team won in 2007 and 2009, we took 2nd in 2008....wouldnt want to take the consecutive part away from you   ;D
Go Big or Go Home!

Of course I was with Skip the only time he did not win it. He came very close to a three-peat though with a couple ounces out of first. I told my buddies when we were up north that I guarontee Skip would win it this year (without mentioning any details). I say that because if it was half as windy as it was on Grand Lake everyone else would be fishing largemouth while Skip braves the rough water to get to those spring smallie goldmines hes got. Probably would not matter if everyone could fish the mainlake anyways. Congrats on your second DK title.
