Mac,I haven't seen you post very much lately .I thought it might be because you no longer own a Nitro. So I decided to give back to you 1% of the total value of the 901.Let it be known to all on this board that I give 1% of the 901 back to Mac.When I sale the boat in a year or two I will send a check for 1% of the sold price. If you ever in the area and want to use it feel free.

I love it and I'm really injoying it.Its cleaned up super nice.



Thanks,

Mark G.
 
Mac will forever be the "Big Mac" or "Mac Daddy" of this site! LOL Despite his getting all rich and famous....well famous! And he picks on my ego??? LOL Mac, what other FLW you fishing?
 
LOL...I've just been really busy these past 2 weeks working on a deal that will change my life!! Until everything is nailed down, and signed,..I can't say anymore, but just when I thought it couldn't get any better, I have been proven wrong AGAIN!! LOL

Mac,



Whatever it is, I am sure it is the rewards due to you!



Good luck buddy!



Rich D
 
Mac, can't wait to see the new boat! Congrats in advance!!!

Some of Mac's twisted imagination must have gone with the boat and rubbed off on ya!
 
Hey Mac, if it's as big as it sounds, than Mini's gonna need an assistant towel boy. If so, keep me in mind. I'll gladely take a ride on your coat-tails, pal !!!



Craig
 
Forget the towel BOY, I'll be your towel GIRL. Heck, I'll even wear the halter top you are going to send me. Can't wait to see the new boat and claim I know another famous person. Fish on!!
 
Oh great, Teri just trumped us for the job. Everybody knows Mac is a sucker for a haltertop and maybe a thong.....unless Rob's wearin' it!!

Toxic,...something stinks here,..i know there's a position available for you somewhere, but it may require a remote uninhabited island for you to set up shop...I will get back with you!! Trep....you will be in charge of my hats....I like RANGER hats,Mercury Hats..BPS hats,..Mustad Hats, Lowrance Hats...MotorGuide Hats,...and Scales and Tales Hats (Lots of those last ones!!).....the first time I see a Jar-Jar hat on my boat,...you will be sharing a hootch in New Guinea with Toxic!!

Mac,



I can't believe you forgot about me!!LOL Remember when Mini got mad at me for offering to be your towel boy and I apologized and said that if your towel boy needs a towel boy... and we made up!! Geesh and to think I was going to hook you up with "The King Crappie baits" I feel so shunned. LOL



NOW, congrats dude! I know it will be big, you have earned it!!



Tim
 
I didn't forget you Tim.......your job is "classified"...ala CIA..as in "Crappies In Arkansas"...you will be in charge of infiltrating the enemy's camps...downloading secret weighpoints of their brush piles from their GPS's....you will work with Gene (aka "OOOOOPS") and Neeley who's job will remain ultra super secret,..and you'll report to Rich Stern (aka Alpha-2)...all data will need to be encrypted and sent through Rich's Internet...he will call you...do NOT call him!!...LOL

I've got your back!!!

Mac
 
Go get em' Mac.

It's good to see somebody's hard work get rewarded instead of getting $#@% on.

Make us proud.





Steve.
 
Mac, whatever the big news is, congrats, and way to go!

Good things come to good people.........

that being said........

why.......? JUST KIDDING! Way to go Mac.......egMike
 
I'd like to submit my resume for the roady position.



I can back up a trailer, organize tackle, respool rods, sharpen hooks and tie most common fishing knots including but not limited to: palomar, trilene, uni and blood knots.



I can also tune bait casting reels and have knowledge of both magnetic and centrigual breaking systems.



I have experience with installation and set up of sonar and GPS units, including transducer installation to both transom and trolling motor applications.

cool I almost (feel like I know ya anyway) knew someone that got real famous, and I only can offer rod repair, electronic skills (if I could work on f -15 I can rig a boat) and with all the good stuff them rod makers will be sending you rods in bulk, and ranger will be sending you sweet prerigged boats every 6 months. But I can wish you great success and many high placings in those major tourneys. Dont forget all of us that look up to ya now ya getting really big. plus if bass, or flw every hold a tourney near cincy of the river and Im finding any quality fish Ill let ya know.
 
Dink,Marke and egMike...your skills could all come in VERY handy!! I'll be in touch!!..LOL. I don't have any plans at the moment to fish major tourney's as a Pro,...I'm not going in that direction...I want to keep my fishing "fun"...doing it for a living is very hard to do...and it's very hard on a family. I need to get my daughter's through college first before I can talk my wife into hittin' the road with me!! I would love to fish the entire FLW series as a co-angler though,..I won't have the time to put in to pre-fish as a Pro, nor do I really want to be on the road that much. But,.. if all goes as planned,..I could certainly do the 1/2week at a time as a co-angler and then spend my other time doing what I do BEST!! I haven't gotten that far yet into my future plans,..but it looks so bright I gotta wear shades...at night!!!!...LOL..After I can discuss it more,...you'll all say,.."Ahhh..now THERE's a man with a plan!!"..Life is good!

You people are awesome....no matter what comes my way now or in the future,..fame, fortune, or bankruptcy,..I consider myself a success already just by being surrounded with the friends i have!! They are far more important to me than a balance sheet......always have been...always will be!! Thanks for all of your support....it means EVERYTHING!

Mac
 
Mac, you are definitely a man with his priorities in order,

I definitely know what you're talking about with the college thing, oldest son and oldest daughter in college here, but one good thing about it, ALOT more driveway space!

Again, my best wishes to you and yours in whatever this new adventure brings you.

(there, that ought to get me in as trailer tire inflation and lubrication engineer!)

Seriously, congrats Mac.....egMike
 
Mac,



I will take on extra duties and be the cigar and scotch afficionado. Nothing but 12 year old Glenlivet, 17 year old Glengoyne and 18 year Highland park to compliment the well aged Montecristos, Opus X, Ashtons, and Cohibas!



We may not catch a d@^& thing, but we will enjoy ourselves!



Rich D
 
Good Luck Mac. Hope everything goes smoothly and better than you hoped it would. Robert
 
It's a clische that applies... "cream rises to the top" .. and you deserves all that is good... Great to see "just plain good people" get some of the pie... Keep me in mind for your personal computer guru... Like the "A" team.. you'll need me.. to kepp Bill Gates at bay...LOL
 
Mac,

Email me your address and I can send the book. You do not want to see the dot. You are not supposed to be seen. So, we just use a regular scpoe. You know the deal. :)



Carlos
 
Mac - Already had dinner with the heads of marketing for RANGER, Mercury, BPS hats, Mustad, Lowrance sand MotorGuide. They are all READY to provide top quality hand stiched hats, custom embroidered with the S&T's logos!!



Oh, and since you forgot this part, i've order enough equipment for a small brew house, to keep you in beer when your on your down time!!!



Go get'em BIG DOG!!!
 
Mac,if you need a "backlash reversal techniction" I'll gladly send you a reseme'.



Steve
 
Carlos,...I must be watching too many movies,....glad you have my back!! Your being promoted too!!! Trep...you keep working like that and Mini and Neeley will be YOUR towel men! Steve,...I could use one of those technicians!! LOL

You're hired too!! Greg,...I'm creating a job for you too...you'll probably work with Neeley in a classified psy-ops capacity....but Carlos is running a back ground check on you now so we'll get back with you later....carry on!

BTW,...new boat is home and in the garage...one word is all I can muster,.....SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!!....more later....I'm wiped out....g'nite all!

Mac
 
Hey Mac... I was wonderin? Jusy how thorough is that check that Carlos is doin? Seems to me that my head has been replaced by another...just wonderin about the new pain in my @$$?... Oh and I didn't ask her age so it wasn't my fault... LOL
 
Greg,...it takes a while to do a thourough check....and everybody has a "price" in which things will be "over looked"...if you're worried about Carlos finding something that could jeapordize your future with us,...I'd recommend you send Carlos a 3700 box FULL of his favorite baits...and also throw in a couple more tie-down straps....and maybe,..just MAYBE,..you're report will come back clean. Just a thought,...LOL!!

 
Mini's on his way over now,...we're going to the lake for my shakedown cruise and to get some time on the motor...need to get my 2hrs of break-in time done!! Pretty much gauranteed some fishing will take place too...but I can't wait to be able to open that puppy up!! Gotta do 2 hrs of variable throttle running at +3000 RPM's before it switches out of the break-n double oil mode!! Geeez,..the things we gotta do before we can play!! Will report more later tonite!!....Adios...smooth sailin'!!
