Do you think that would work for me? Because the whole "gotten use to him" thing isn't working...

The really great thing I learned from the Classic, and this I know is a fact,
the sport I truly have a passion to participate in is represented by some of the finest human beings ANY sport could ask for! No excuses, no blame just true SPORTSMANSHIP! Every personality imaginable and all ages to boot. Old timers as well as newbies. All respect one another. Gracious, admirable and true believers in family and gratitude along with appreciation for the FAN base. These anglers care about the sport not just for them but for US as well. My HATS OFF to the those gentleman for a job well done.

"I am new to this site but despite the normal bickering I do get a sense of "fellowship" here but I wouldn't expect anything less. Fishermen are percieved as friendly and helpful and all that by the non-fishing world as well. Case in point>>> Many years ago a buddy of mine and I had planned to meet at a particular 7-11 on the "rough" side of town before daylight to go fishing. When I pulled up in the parking lot in my old truck looking kinda scruffy and hungover, the young girl getting ready to open the store looked up from her till with a scared-almost panicked look on her face that she was about to be robbed or worse. I pulled up just a little bit more so she could easily see that I was pulling a boat...grinned real big and waived. Immediately she relaxed, the color came back in her face and I could see her smiling a little as she continued to get ready for the day. I'm sure there might be some mean and hateful fisherman out there somewhere, but as a group the general public sees us as non-threatening even comical and certainly not dangerous...l...lets endeavor to keep it that way" Fisherman are typically a nicer group than the non-fishing group, but if I stop to think about niceness in general, I realize that the real dividing line is the outdoorsman. In the story above I'm sure the girl would have been equally relaxed to look up and see someone with a dog box full of beagles or pointers in the back of the truck. I could easily write a book from here about the image we should all try to maintain but yall know what I mean.

As far as a marshall being in each boat, I really can't say for sure. I do know that a lot of the anglers have camera guys hop in there boats for a few minutes to do some filming or an interview and then the camera man is back in his media boat getting ran around the lake for more footage of other anglers. I have seen in other Elite tournaments where a media boat will pull up to an anglers boat and the marshall will hop in the media boat until the camera man gets all the footage he needs and then they switch back. I would assume the Classic is no different but I can't say for sure.

Trip Weldon was the guy that they asked the 'who puts in the weight estimates'.
He's the one who said only TWO rules. Who's the guy that does the scales on stage? Is that Trip too?
