Hello Cal, hearing from folks like you always puts a smile on my
face. I take a great deal of pride in the articles I write. Each
and every one takes a great deal of time and thought. Yes, the tournaments
are getting more commercialized but this has also done a great deal
to further our sport at the national level. When it comes to fun,
I still enjoy the competition. I did run in to that problem a few
years. With the work that comes with having sponsors support you
this becomes very time consuming. I did have to make a little attitude
adjustment myself in that respect. It all comes down to the way
you look at things and how you keep your perspectives in check.
I have always found my most enjoyment when I am on the water. There
I can just get down to work and focus on the job at hand. If I can
be of any further assistance please feel free to contact me through
this great web site. One of the other pleasures that I get is from
helping other anglers out. I feel honored when someone thinks enough
of me to take the time to ask me questions. I always have time to
help a fellow angler and I feel obligated to do so. The fans and
fellow anglers are the ones who in essence pay our bills.
Thank you again,
Leo Watson
