I have yet to met Gary in person, but we have spoken on the phone and we have corresponded over that wonderful invention "the internet" on more then a few occasions, and one thing that come through loud and clear is his passion for the sport of Bass fishing, for making a quality rod and for his family. So I know he would be very proud of the recent issue of BassWest USA magazine and the cover touting him as a :"Legend of the Sport"



I dont think many can argue with the "Legend" title.. over the years Gary has won 26 Angler of the Year titles (professional) 40 Prize Boats, not to mention over $2 Million is cash earnings. If that does not put him in elite company I dont know what will.

I have met Garry a couple times, fantastic person, great fisherman, and loves a good practical joke. No doubt he is a Legend in the sport, he has been a part of bass fishing since I started fishing anyway, and that's been a long time  ~roflmao

He can catch bass, no doubt, if he's entered in an event he's the one to beat. His son Richard is no slouch... ~shade
