Phil, Mike and Chris - thanks for your help and yes what you are saying makes sense to me. It's not that I think tuning is some big secret it's that I think that majority of people think it is. It's almost like no one actually wants to tell you what parts and maps and tuning processes are used to get to a certain level with your FD. Instead people just list what the most common bolt-ons are that everyone "should" do to their FD. But you guys have cleared some things up for me...thanks.

Anyway, thanks for the help and I'm definitely down for some fishing! My house is like 2 miles from the TN River and Pickwick, Wilson and Wheeler Lakes are smallmouth loaded.

Brad

Sounds good to me. I have 5 or 6 rod and reels and enough tackle and bait to last a long long time. I can probably get us all out on pretty big (but old) pontoon boat if you don't want to just fish off the bank.

Also, what WB is best? I was lookingat this one but whatever:

Well, I'll let you borrow and rod and reel, we'll hook up the Bass Pro Shop Power FC to it, throw on a Wideband and do some speed fishing and hope that you don't "pop" the reel j/k

I would love for all of us to get together and do some fishing. I'm no expert but I do fish about 3 days a week on average.

As far as the fishing goes, I was thinking like around the 2nd or 3rd of June. I would do it sooner but my brother is putting on that annual carshow in the Rogersville area this Saturday so I told him I would do that again. And then the next weekend is Memorial Day Weekend and I'm probably gonna take the wife and my boys camping. So 1st weekend in June sound good?

I'm up for pizza!

Thats funny... Yeah, I had to get a belt to fit my power stearing. Guy that worked there took a few pics. Those guy's there are pretty cool. Let me borrow new tools and all..

Big Eds is in the old Peanut Factory. Beside Shoney's.

My tentative schedule:

May 19th - Rogersville Carshow
May 26-28 - Memorial Weekend Camping Trip
June 2-3 - BDC Tuning
June 9-10 - Possbile Fishing For Everyone
June 16-17 - Not good for Mike. I'm probably going to Louisiana.
June 23-24 - Another Possible Fishing Weekend if 9th-10th isn't good for everyone
June 30th-July 7th I'll be down in Orange Beach, AL

So let me know when some of you might want to get together and go fishing and share some of those tuning snob secrets

Brad
