Please notice the BRUISER BAITS in the Winners Hands, by the way he bought a few bas just a week ago and now he has been in FIRST PLACE for the last two weeks, maybe, just maybe you all should a few bags to even the playing field, or let Jim & Nelson keep taking your money. I personally would invest in a few bags of Bruiser Baits, check them out and order online at www.BruiserBaits.com Maybe you can beat Jim and Nelson next time.

Congratulations to all the winners and the Next BASS BUSTERS event is SILVER & GOLD on June 12 & 13 in Clewiston Followed by SUPER-BUCKS on June 26 & 27. Hope to see everyone next month.
