Well folks here is the announcement of my new employment for the spring of 2005. I am pleased to say that I was selected for the position of Assistant Tour Director for the
 
I'll say congrat's here.....I don't wanna post it on all 3 boards we frequent!!!
 
Teri, that would be cool. I was bummed I missed you when you were up here. My cousin Donna is supposed to be in Nashville the same time for work (she works for Universal Music Canada in Marketing) so I am sure there will be good times had by all. :)



NP Neeley...

Thats great Mini! Will you have to relocate? Will you guys be at the Bass Master Classic this year? Congratulations!!



Rich D
 
Mini, thats awesome dude. Too bad the tour isnt coming up to the N.E. area.
 
Rich,...Mini WILL be relocating,...weekly,..from hotel to hotel!! LOL



We'll be at the Classic!!
 
Cool Deal Mini....You got Rob's dream Job.



The Louisiana Oilman's is or has always been at Toledo Bend.

Is there something in the works to change that?



I will try to make to Lake Charles when you are there.



There are casino's at both the Shreveport and Lake Charles stops if you are interested.



Send me some stuff!

That proves my theory...



"Good things happen to good people..."



Whatever else develops, for the next six months you have a terrific schedule of venues... Nothing north of Arkansas... Bet you don't have a snow blower in that trailer!
 
Yeah I see a lot of southern states on that schedule! Too bad they don't have frequent driver miles!



You mean I will be able to see the S&T boat up close and personal this year?
 
Good Grief what a schedule.. Congrats and way to go Mini.

Closest event to me is Richmond and I can't travel yet darn it. I'm glad something good is happening for you.



Bill
 
Rich D,



The Ranger will be wrapped with Shimano not Scales and Tales.



Mini
 
Ah well, a wrap is a wrap! I look forward to meeting you guys!



Rich D
 
The Michigan Mafia coming to Pittsburgh..



There goes the neighborhood!!!!!!!!!



Let me know,I wouldn't mind getting together and tilting a few cold Irons.



Steve



Ps. congrats Mini. Sounds like you and Shimano both made out good.
 
Wolf,



I dont think that there will be a change to the LA Oilmans, I know it was/is @ Toledo. I told them that. This is the schedule that Adventure had. It is by no means complete or set in stone.



Mini
 
Figures once again us Northerners get left out. Guess I should plan a Vacation around your schedule.



Congrats, I always like Shimano
 
There is talk of ewxpanding the tour next year based on how well it does this year. If they expand it, it will come north.



Mini
 
Congrat's John. This sounds like a great gig. When you go to Nashville, look up Tommie in the parts department and say hi. She's a peach!



Craig
 
Tommie in Nashville....Cousin from Toronto, Teri.....sounds like Nashville is going to be fun :)



Mini
 
Your gonna love the McDonald's Big Bass tourn on Sam Rayburn. I used to fish it but haven't in a few years.



Never seen so many 5 to 10 lb fish in my life.



The final weigh in and show is a trip also.



Wolf
 
Mini



So you got a job. What's the health plan and retirement Plan? Just kidding! Congrats. 30 years ago that was my dream to make my living doing what I love. Didn't have the right stuff. Enjoy.

fatrap
 
Mini - First CONGRATS my brotha-from-anotha-motha!!!



Your post said "this is not a fishing tournament." but some of the venues say "open" or "tournament"???



Is it that your JOB is not to fish a tournament, but you job is to promote the products and the pomotional stuff, and a good many of the PLACES you'll be will be fishing tournaments?



So that Ranger is for show not for fishing???



Trep
 
thats awesome,

see you at bass-a-rama in richmond.

mike
 
Mini: "With that said, if you are near any of these venues

stop by and say hi! Would like to meet some more..."



Hmmmmm, I feaked out TT! Think you could handle a stranger walking up and saying, "Hello, aren't you Mini?"



Seriously, sounds great! Congratulations!



Harry



 
kb I will make time, although we have to drive to atlanta then to okeechobee after that show. I did already discuss with the director about fishing anna....you better take me out so I can out fish TOX on his own puddle...



Mini
 
Congrats Mini,

Maybe I'll see you and Teri In Nashville in Feb.

Sounds like too much fun to be a JOB!

LOL

TOM
 
Ahhh. Can't wait till Tox Chimes in on this one...

Depending on the weather we'll go somewhere

Anna or the James

Maybe Bill will let us play on his side!!!

See ya in a few weeks....KB
 
Mini,



Very deserved congratulations to you. If you are driving through the Charlotte locale, and need a place to hang your hat or get a good meal, give me a shout!



Tex
 
Harry, beleive it or not I get that all the time...



Wont freak me out a bit.



Mini
 
Yeah but you are always wearin some Itialian guy's shirt!! LOL!! I'll be at Bassarama all three days and I'll take some more time off if you can make time. If Bill is agreeable and you get the time, the hot side of Anna would be the best bet but I will fish anywhere!! Let me be the first to offer a place to stay, a free washing machine and a home cooked meal if you can make it. Problem is that Mac already slept in the guest bedroom in the man cave and drank all my Jack (Neeley helped). All I've got left now is the Chevis!!!!LOL!! I have some road shows coming up so we might cross paths in some other states also. What great news!!



TOXIC

MVM
 
Way to go Mini-- Congrats



Sounds like fun / lots of work..

Just let us know if you need some "field testers" LOL.



Post some pics of the wrapped Ranger.



Take Care --



HaleDamage



 
Congrats Mini...same goes here if your near Lexington KY and have time give me a loo up and we will slam a few cold ones. If you truly meet everone from here and have "cocktails" with them all, your gonna be hammered the whole time dude!! Hope to see ya around!



Donnie
 
Great news Mini!! Bill Carson's been a friend of mine for years. He'll take good care of you. When I see him tomorrow I'll make sure he knows what a good choice they've made. You're going to have a ball!!
 
Dan, I did mention your name to Bill and the guys in Atlanta. All had good things to say about you. Had a good time with the guys in Irvine this past week.



Trep, We will be WORKING the tournaments not competing in them, yes on off days we will be fishing from that Ranger. On show days it will be in the booth.



Tox, you got it man. There are two of us and I dont think we are going to be at the show site, but at Greentop's location. I dont know why in the world thay did that. It seems that we would be better served if we were IN the show, not at a retailer. How far is Greentop from the venue? Besides I will have money to get you some Jack....I promise not to drink it all, and if I do, I will get another. :)



DonJovi, never fear. This dog can hunt!



Tex and all the rest thank you for your offers for a place to sleep, I may take yall up on it. I will be travelling with another guy, so we will need room for two.



Mini
 
They have already added another stop.



List has been updated.



Atlanta Hunting, Fishing & Outdoor Show

Atlanta, Georgia

2/4/05-2/6/05
 
Yamaha powered Z21 Ranger with a wrap. Its not mine, but you darn well know I will run it :)



Mini
 
mini,

greentop is not that far from bass-a-rama. They have a massive sale during the show. Most of us that come down for the show stop by and pick up some stuff, so i will see you there.

mike
 
You da man Minner:) Sounds like it actually could be a FUN job...if there ever was one:) Congrats and Good Luck!
 
Congrats on the job Mini. Any chance you may be headed north? If not, see you at the Classic.



Sue
 
Congrat's Mini, you are repesenting a excellent company in Shimano, I know, my entire line of fishing reels are Shimano, 22 and counting. Again Congrat's and tell everyone hi and I just may have to get you another bottle of JD Buzz style.



Buzz
 
Let's see now, next time I'm BS'ing with my home boys I'll have to say something like, "Yeah, my best friend, has moved up the Shimano corporate ladder and is running their North American, nahhh, their world marketing campagin." (Sometimes I embelish things)



Any way, hat's off and congratulations. You deserved a break and got a good one.



Da Bear
 
Congrats Mini! Looks like you'll be enjoying the weather in the South for a while. Have fun fishing the Florida hot spots!



Barb
 
Glad you got a great job Mini......I may see you at one of those...JR
 
You can always trust a name like Shimano to make the right move and pick the right people for the job!



Congrats Mini "U DA MAN "
