Look who we bumped into

carolina-rig-01 · 02-08-09, 02:13 AM

we were walking around the boat show at tulsa and happened to notice edwin evers walking around on his way to a booth he was going to work for a while. it started with nobody realizing who he was but after people seen us getting pictures taken there was a line forming, hahaha sorry edwin. he seems like a really great guy and wish we could have had more time to talk but his wife (who is pregnant and is expected to give birth during the classic) called so we decided to leave him alone.

Lucky day for you, c-rig. He seems like a nice guy from what I've seen of him on TV.

Did you slip a couple jigs in his pocket while he wasn't looking?

That's cool c-rig, I had a chance to talk to Larry Nixon, Guy Eaker and Forrest Woods yesterday at a show. Forrest Woods is a fantastic person, not that the other two weren't great guys but Forrest Woods acted like he knew me all my life. Oh yea George Cochren was there but--I'll be nice.

we got there about 11:00 and left probably around 4:00. i called you but all i got was your voice mail so i left a message. it was a great time and twiggy the water skiing squirrel was awesome, i wanted to get a shirt that said "i partied with twiggy" but they didn't have any lol.

and yeah guys edwin seems like a great guy, real personable and willing to talk.

I bump on The BaitMonkey almost on a daily basis and he´s a lotta more famous than Edwin Evers.

Lilmoosecountry · 02-09-09, 03:22 PM

Kory i'm not a big jig fishermen. Or maybe i have no confidence in them not sure. You can throw some my way. I'll try to reconsider.
