UBCS

Brush Hawg · March 23, 2009, 02:03:11 PM

I just wanted to say what a great time I had at this years UBCS as always, this is my favorite event every year and God-willing I will never miss another one (Bistineau). As a guy who didn't think I would be able to fish because of work (I had to use last vacation day and two sick days) and then I got that straight. I then committed and then my I got shut down because of personal reasons (wife). I then had to tell my partner and best friend Jimmy Brown that I was backing out and he needed to find somebody else. Luckily Jimmy found a great partner in Big Joe. Then my situation turned around I was able to fish again. I've always had a personal rule not to fish Toledo by myself because it can be such a treacherous place, despite this I just could not stay away. I made the trip but it felt ackward as heck at first. After a couple of nice jabs about getting my family jewels back my Lockjaw brothers took me back into the fold. I love those guys.

Fishing wise I did better than expected but for me it is not just about the fishing it is about hanging with some of the coolest mofo's in the world and them TCTC people are pretty damn cool too. The food was excellent on both nights and I have to say in my opinion that was definitely the best spread the TCTC people have laid out for us. That pork loin was excellent. Steve did an awesome job running the event and I would like to thank all the TCTC guys and gals for a great experience. I did miss PAPA and Trey not being there. TCTC has some really great fisherman in it and that's why we rejoice when we can put on a good showing up against you guys and your incredibly nice fishing rigs. That's why we scream Lockjaw!!! at the top of our lungs to show we are there and to support our club brothers. Congrats to Josh and Kenny, Chris and Brent, and John and Max for the team honors. Great job. Thanks to Rattle for all the hard work he does for our club year in and year out, you sir are a great friend and fisherman. Thanks to Mike and Laurie for starting this website because it is what spawned this incredible event and gives real fisherman the chance to discuss real fishing topics and generally b.s. as well. Also Mike when Jimmy and me were giving you a "hard" time about the saltwater baits that was planned. Jimmy wanted to pull your chain a little and you've got to admit a saltwalter bait in Electric Chicken color calls for a little ribbing. For real the door prizes were excellent and on our end we couldn't have come up with two better people to win the Carrot Stick and the Citica reel. Your door prize winner Brent may have to take Trey's spot as our "honorary" member. He is always cool as heck to talk with about fishing and football. He's got a LOCKJAW heart just lives up North.

Basically I just want to say:

LOCKJAW!!!!!!!!!!

I want to put my 2 cents in here too!
You LockJaw fella's are some very cool cats to spend time BS's and fish with. Thanks to all who put this on and continue to make the UBCS tourney's an awaited event in my life.
My son wanted me to also say he had a great time hanging out with Fogy & John's young'ins. We got home and he went to the garage and got out his fishin rods and wanted to go fishing. I told him it would have to wait till tomorrow cause dad was tired.
Also, thanks to the ladies for helping get everyones stuff out and making a final round for checkout.
The food was awesome both nights and so was the laughes. Gotta love Jack "aka Jimmy" for keeping everyone on their toes and tons of laughter.
Man we need one of these in the spring and fall. A whole year is just too long to wait.
Thanks all.
LOCKJAW
