The Summer of Suckitude

If Gershwin had written lyrics to describe my past two months of fishing, no doubt they’d start off “Summertime, and the fishing’s crappy.”
If 20 years from now a still-youthful Denzel Washington agrees to play me in a film about my fishing in July and August of 2010, it’ll probably be called “Remember the Suck Truck.” In short, it’ll be the story of how some talented fishermen and one angler who apparently doesn’t know which end of the fishing rod to hold integrated the tidal rivers of the mid-Atlantic.
If my July and August tournament results had a Facebook page, the only ones who’d be pressing the “Like” button would be the fish, who have up until now largely ignored me.

Imagine you are heading off to college at Lehigh University in two weeks to play Division 1 soccer and enroll in Army ROTC. You have one weekend at home with your family left. What do you do with that weekend?
If you are Ciaran Nugent, you fish two open 40 boat tournaments back to back, cashing a check in one, and narrowing missing a check in the second. Ciaran, the son of my long-time tournament partner, fished one tournament with his father Mark, and the other with me. Fishing has been a part of Ciaran's life since he was small, but playing soccer is his passion. His position as goalie has taken him to the U15 and U18 National Championships, playing against the best players and teams in the country. Needless to say, Ciaran had his pick of schools and chose Lehigh.

Mann’s Reflections on the Chance of a Lifetime

When veteran Georgia pro Tom Mann Jr. earned a berth in the 2010 Forrest Wood Cup on his home body of water, Lake Lanier, he felt like this one tournament was the culmination of his effort over the past 30 years. He called it a “once in a lifetime deal,” and while he wouldn’t say so publicly, anything less than a victory was likely to leave him disappointed.
He’d qualified for the big derby last October, giving him almost a full year to think about how he’d fish it – but that year paled in comparison to the days upon days upon days that he’s spent on Lanier over the years. In fact, he figures he’s fished it more than anyone else, alive or dead.
