Flying Blind in Burnsville
[April 18, 2003] - By Benjamin Huffman
"I have 7:00am. First flight returns at 4:00pm, second at 4:30pm," announces tournament director Steve
Jackson. #1…Ok, #2…Ok,…#23…#23!…anyone seen #23?...Ok. #76…Where's #76?...Ok.
The start of the Buddy Trail season began last Saturday, April 12th, with 98 boats making a showing. It was quite
enjoyable listening to Steve announce boat numbers, but not be able to see them waving for acknowledgment due to
some early fog. Some guys even flashed their lights trying to get his attention.
Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining about the day of fishing. Different weather patterns will be thrown at
us while we work into summer and we will have to take them with a grain of salt as they present themselves. Not
to mention, it could have been snowing…Sutton 2002. |
