Chatting with KVD

Last night, I encountered one of the most unforgettable experiences any young angler could ever have. The leader after the first two days, KVD had broken his speaker for his Biosonix fish attractor during Day Two. Just so happens, I had the representative from Biosonix staying with me at my place. We loaded up and went over to the cabin in which Kevin was staying to help install a new speaker on his boat. It was really a treat to know that I was helping one of the best anglers in the world at a time when he was leading one the Elite Series tournaments.

Not only did I have the opportunity to help him out, but at a time when there had to have been tremendous amounts of pressure on him, Kevin still took time to have a conversation with us. We sat there while he prepared his gear for the following day, and I got to see what the best in the world were using on my home lake.

Being around these guys has been a great experience that I believe every young angler needs to be introduced to. The tournament is only halfway over and I have already learned a tremendous amount from these guys. Best of all, they take the time to help and explain tips and techniques to all.
