Are we going to see you on Dancing with the Stars anytime soon? ;)
Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will go buy a boat.

Wow I look good! Ian Oliver is like 6'5" in person I don't know how they fit him on TV :D

I love it when Champlain get's good press on TV, it's rare these days.

I tried to get a few faces on there with pictures. I saw Thorny, WildfisherWoman, Raz......

Great job Ben. It's nice to see the folks that really make an effort get some well deserved publicity. I'm glad that the local media recognizes the importance in the "other" sports. Doing this story standing in front of Dick's Sporting Goods wouldn't have the same effect.

LMAO!! Good one!

Nice job Ben! You are so smooth in front of the camera, unlike the fuzzy headed prez you didn't say ummm or ahhhhh even once, you are a natural :mrgreen:

I'll be up in June for a week during the Dad's Day LCI and would like you to meet my kids so they can say they know a celeb! :mrgreen:

So that is what your face looks like.

WCAX must be to good for the crack shots.

Seriously, you did a great job talking about the positive that the lake provides.

Thank you

Good Job Ben! I saw a few familiar faces in the pictures and I think I saw The Homewrecker afloat on the lake in one of the early shots of the lake itself. With all of that publicity us trollers may not be able to get tot the shop as your lot will be full of fancy trucks and bass boats.

I stopped at the shop the next day to drop off an order and thought about grabbing a custom "Big Ben" spoon that is his special lure we make for him and have him sign it, figure I'd raffle it off to the highest bidder or hold on to it and hope someday it might be worth a bunch of $$$, then thought again, NOT !!!!! LOL Sorry Ben.

Seriously great job on the interview, you did the Lake and everyone proud.
