Good morning and welcome to another exciting edition of BTO where we are going to talk about fishing and for the second week in a row. We'll be back to our regularly schedule.

Day four on Thursday, which, you know, Monday Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday, that's the day of the week, which is where Mark Jeffries several years ago came up with that very original name.

Day four, but I told you, first of all, what's up, Uncle Frank?

Dude, I'm so good at sickness.

Yeah, I told all the listeners yesterday, no show tomorrow, because I'm going to chase a double digit hog with a Brandon Burke somewhere in the Lone Star State.

He said to me the pin tonight, I think he caught two double digits yesterday. I've not gotten in on that craze over the last couple. Well, I guess what, four years ago when it broke at Ivy and now it's happened in all these different places had an opportunity had to take it.

So sorry, the fisherman came out at me, so no show tomorrow. Can you blame me, Frank? No, I'd be I'd be so pissed if you pass that up to do to do a show.

I would be like, wait, what are you crazy?

Yeah, I mean, you have to take it as you have an opportunity to you have an opportunity to to get a PB. You have to take it.

Absolutely. Yeah, my PB 11 for when we were working on the show last night, I was telling you the story about how my personal best cost me three rods and a net, but I got it in the boat.

And it's so worth it, dude, I'd break three rods to catch one over 11 every day.

I, I saw it. And I mean, on the hook set, when I step back, it was, I mean, very few times in life, do you get to set the hook on a bass and know that it's a bass and it just does not move like everything performs perfectly.

You have the right rod, the right line, the hook berries, and it's just one of those. And it just stops. And I mean, you know what I mean?

That's where you get like the, the bruise on your side, one hook set. I mean, if you think about it, a lot of times we're catching these little suckers and we're cranking them in skiing them in even a three pounder.

Now you can get that sucker in, but man, when you swack one and it just stops. I mean, that's the Zara better feeling.

No, there's not, there really is not. I mean, it's one of my, you know, one of my favorite things about fishing is that the cool thing about our sport is you could, you could have, you could have the greatest time in the world at any possible level of the game.

You could be a bank guy dunking a crawler under a bobber and have the most fun of your life doing it. You could be an ardent pro traveling the circuit and have the best time of your life doing it.

You know, you could, you could be a trophy hunter and have the best time doing it or you could just go and catch creek chub in a creek and have the best time. That's why our sport is so fantastic.

Because it really doesn't have a lot of limits on it. You know, you don't have to be the most physically fit human being in the world. You, you know, there's a lot of things that are sport opens a door to a wide array of people.

And that's the cool thing about our sport, but, but you have a shot at a PB bass. You have to go. I mean, you have to go.

That's, that's, if you just said, dude, I'm going to pass it up. I'd be like the shows cancel.

So here's what I like about it. So let's just do a little dirty math here. Let's say we all live to be 80 years old. God will it.
