There are certain professional milestones that you reach that you are really and truly proud of. I've been fortunate to have several. Guiding Melissa Ciolek to 2 world record shark and a Governors Cup are a couple that I'm very proud of. Today I reached a milestone that I am not only proud of, but one that came quite unexpectedly. Now it's no secret that I've been using Penn reels on my boat for years. I believe in the product and I recommend it whenever possible. It's also no secret that Penn Reels has a very small and select Pro Staff that is next to impossible to become a member of. It's a Pro Staff that includes names like Ray Rosher, Bouncer Smith and Dennis Braid. This afternoon while working at the RISSA show, I was approached by representatives from Penn Reels and offered a slot in that select group. After being momentarily stunned and then trying to control the grin that was quickly stretching from ear to ear, I graciously accepted! I would like to publicly thank Penn Reels for deeming me worthy to be a part of such a select group. I would also like to publicly thank Capt. Eric Stewart and the entire crew of THE HOOK-UP! Capt Eric knew that being affiliated with Penn Reels was always a goal that I had. What I didn't know was Capt Eric and crew were major champions for my cause and their efforts played a major role in putting me on Penn's radar. Representatives from Penn were in attendance at our "BlueFin Tuna Seminar Series". Apparently my presentation helped make up their mind that I would be a good fit with Penn Reels. Thanks again to Penn reels and Capt Eric Stewart for helping me reach another milestone in my guiding career!  | ||
