Hey guys some of you remember me as the guy who came on here asking how to catch my first striper before i joined the army, and thanks to jim and brett i did. Then i deployed to iraq and gave a shoutout from my company a few months ago in iraq. Well im back in texas at fort hood waiting to come home to ga for leave in october. Got the whole month at home so cant wait to do some fishing, hopefully get to meet up with jim and brett again. Well anyway just wanted to let you guys know my company and i made it back alive and well. Thanks for all the support.

Thanks for the Service!

Outstanding Vance. Thanks for your service.

Hit us up with some dates on your return Vance, and i a sure that between Jim and all the other folks on the board you will have plenty of opportunities to fish. Welcome home and a grateful thank you for your service to our country.
