Well gave her Maiden Voyage

[BBJTKLE&FISHINGADVENTURES]

Well I left home at 515 Saturday morning, loaded truck up, with boat in tow. Great. Get to around Leduc Highway was looking a little snotty, but not bad. I kept going got to just south of Wetaskiwin hwy 13 overpass.

Well the woman driver in a car ahead of me started fishtailing , so I tap my breaks , and my boat trailer and boat start fishtailing UH OH I slowly correct it was good to go then boat went Boat and me now out of control , boat and trailer spun me around so now I’m sitting North in the Southbound lane .

With 10 foot ditches either side, managed to keep both on the highway, and un harmed, not sure how but I did. By far the scariest thing I’ve ever had happen I think. SO after I cleaned my pants and heart attack subsided, I called 911, RCMP came within 8 minutes I think. He stopped traffic, and let me get back facing south.

I called JTS1 said I’m not coming , but once I got things situated , Called him back when I was closer to Red Deer called him back and said I’m on my way . With a few more crappy spots, counted 8 more cars and 3 semis in the ditch. I drove in 4x4 all the way to Calgary.

So I pick JTS1 up and were headed to Lethbridge where I meet up with Npauls also forum member, we head to an area lake and launched our boats, started the process of breaking in the motor, after about an hour and half or 2 hours was enough of that it was very cold on the water with that wind and tempature being around 0 give or take 3 or 4 degrees.

So we sit here in our hotel room eating our breakfast trying to come up with a plan of attack for the day , with the temp being - 8 I don’t think I’ll chance launching the boat , so we might go head to one of the area ponds do a little fishing from shore .

Tomorrow is set to be +13 so were going to get up early and load up on continental breakfast, and head out to Lake LMNOP.

I will post pictures later as we have pictures and Video.

Glad you and the boat are safe. I had a scary experience on the highway a few years ago pulling a trailer and almost lost it as well. Scary stuff. Its amazing you managed to not jackknife it or something. Hope you have a great time tomorrow!

Oh I did trailer was completely 90 ' to my truck and how It didnt go in the ditch is beyond me , I counter steered threw it into 4x4 and thats when I came to a stop and my heart was in my throat . Im still shocked not as mark on anything , and actually I thought I bent the rim on the one time but it was just full of snow and ice .

[WayneChristie]

supposed to do donuts on the water not the highway :bad_boys_20: glad you made it. too bad Jeff wasnt with you, you would have heard him scream like a little girl! :sHa_sarcasticlol:

Now you tell me LOL Kidding I knew that but that was by far the whorst ive ever seen it , the scary thing was me facing north with other cars slipping and doing the same thing I did but headed right towards me , I was on the phone to 911 operator , and im like UH OH UH OH she said whats wrong I said a car doing a 360 headed right towards me . The weird thing was that it was only the south bound lane .

[silverdoctor]

Jeebus, not a way to christen a boat is it. Glad you're safe and sound, would love to have heard Jeff screaming ;)

[jts1]

I only scream when I see spiders. And it's a manly scream

[Lornce]

Wow sounds like it was really dicey, glad it came out good in the end. At least you got the motor broken in.

[Badback]

Glad everything is alright...Can you imagine damaging your boat on its maiden voyage the weekend that the Titanic sunk...

[BBJTKLE&FISHINGADVENTURES]

I wouldnt say its broken in , we did a little trolling but I varryed the speed as break in states not to leave it at one speed kept it below 3500 RPM found out also that the MPH gauge doesnt work which kinda angers me .

Ahwell Ive enjoyed a few budweisers with my prostaff guys , and a couple AO buddys came to our hotel we enjoyed some pizza , and pops now time for a shower and sleep more fish to be caught tommorow before I head north , at some point , hope the damn highway wont be a nightmare .

You should be able to take your boat right in and get that MPH gauge fixed right? It is brand new, strange its not working

[Alberta Bigbore]

Yeah bbj.. May as well stop at bass pro early when they open on your way back up

[Mike_W]

Did you make sure your speedometer is in the down position on your stern?
I would say you let your eagerness over power your better judgement ..... Good thing your alright and so is your boat, but a word of advice for a future boat captin and guide is don't let it happen again..... I'm sure the future will bring more opportunities to question a situation. There are pleanty lakes in Alberta BC and let's not forget the ocean that will turn your boat inside out and upside down in the wrong circumstances.

Be safe
Mike

[TROLLER]

That speedo is not a big deal.. 90% of the time it is a 5 amp fuse right under your legs.

One thing you need is to carry extra fuses in the glove box.

The tube could be up or the bug plug might still be in ....gotta keep the spiders out ...lol

[Sooner]

I too traveled that highway on sat morning, I guess one of the many trails heading into the ditch was yours. Glad that you got out with no damage. I seen a few car parts in the ditch, lots of spots where people hit the ditch, one crewcab with fifth wheel stuck in the mud between the highways and a tandem semi trailer all tangled up in the metal fence between the highways closer to Calgary. We didnt have any issues, I guess the winter radials did their job.

[highwood]

Glad you're alright but it begs the question...why go in the first place? The forecast was no secret and it nearly cost you a new boat and your life. For someone who always rags on BGSH about safety, I'm a little surprised at your judgement. Either way, glad to hear no one and nothing were harmed, other than your shorts.

X2,

BBJ has his own line of tackle, and therefore has the same right to have prostaffers as anyone else.

BBJ is always a standup guy, willing to lend a hand and help a guy out. Top notch guy, never met him in person but from what I've read he's one of the best guys on AO.

What does it have to do with being a guide?

A prostaffer doesn't guide for a company. They represent the company and help get the company out on the market more.

The BBJ prostaff team is just a bunch of guys who like to get out and have a good time fishing whenever possible.

Read up on his site about the prostaff members and see what the guys are all about. None of them are pros and all are just a bunch of guys looking to have a good time on the water like anyone else.

This fishing discussion is always such a gong show for some reason. I just don't understand why guys go nuts on each other all the time.


I've met John in person. He's got a love for fishing that I've never seen. I enjoy fishing, but I don't have wet dreams about it like John does.

He is a sincere guy with a huge heart. He makes some sweet stuff, but he has to be careful not to advertise due to forum rules unless he wants to become a sponser.

Johnny, you dufus, you shoulda known better than to drive through that stuff! That being said, I would have probably done the same thing if I had a sweet new boat that could have been used on open water!

First time I met BBJ was out at a local lake and he was with Geezle and a couple other of his buddies (actually the first time I met any of them)... they invited me to join them for a shore lunch and a BS session. He is a good guy with a big heart as has been said.

This is why guides need to be licensed in AB...:snapoutofit:
This thread does bring a good point about " Prostaffers ". I would like to think that guides should be licensed as well for legal reasons. When you guide in a boat I would go with somebody who is an established business will carry the right insurance and other other documents. If you are selling tackle in a provincial park you need the papers to do this. I am not clear on the guiding of people in a boat on government water bodies. A couple of years ago a friend mine was contracted to take care of a large provincial park and had a customer who died in one of his boats wearing the parks life jacket. The accident was clearly not his fault but was questioned by the government over his lack of policies. Questioned about the pre launch procedures. At that time the family of the deceased person was putting pressure on the park about there written and non written policies. The man who had passed away had a heart attack in the parks canoe. Clearly was not the contractors fault.
Since that accident strict guidelines were put in place as well as more inspection of peoples contents that they bring fishing.
So with this in mine should Pro-staffers be licensed. I leave it to AO members to be the judge.

[Albertadiver]

What does that ^^^ have anything to do with BBJ taking his boat out for the first time?

Maybe a new thread topic?

[npauls]

Why should a Pro-staffer be licensed? Pro-staffing has nothing to do with guiding or actually making the sale of a product. They are part of the advertising of a company not the actual sales of said company.

To get back on topic. BBJ's boat looked pretty damn nice ripping around the water. It is to bad that the cold weather seems to have made the fish pretty tight lipped as of late.

It is sitting in my driveway and will probably be out rocking on the water on opening weekend for the walleye lakes.

I dont think there was any thing ever said about anyone talking about guiding and selling tackle in a provincial park . I dont do any business other then , at shows I attend , or off my website , I will take orders and serve those , thats just me though .

Having a Prostaffer Licensed would be a very stupid thing that would be like Licensing a billboard .

I to agree that guiding should be regulated and you should have to be a licensed guide , all though the fishing opportunity in Alberta is very small compared to BC , Sask , Man , Ont . But we do have a world class trout fishery .

As for one inspecting my boat , truck etc better have a warrant or wear a badge and have damn good purpose to do so . I think I have been clear in plenty of my posts in the past that Im anti drug / Anti booze while boating , or in control of any type of vehicle . All though some dont think that is the case , and are likely the ones that make life hell for someone like me .

In my own defence I can gladly say Ive got more insureance , and have taken very in depth safety measures also invested alot of money that all my safety equipment is the best of the best . You will also find that you come on one of my fishing trips you show up reaking like booze , or drugs or have those items on you , you will be handed your money back and I launch my boat and go fishing WITHOUT YOU . I have all the proper documentation , to running a legal boat in Canada / Alberta I just need to get the number printed now for my boat .

Nobody said he was not a good guy, I was only questioning the title of pro staffer. Apparently you dont need to be a pro to be a pro staffer as stated above. Just think it does a dis service to guys who are real pro staff "employees" and work hard to get it.

Hey i cant wait to tell my wife I am a pro staff lover, I am not that good,and dont get paid but I have fun so that what counts I guess.

It's not like it is a self given title. John has hand picked these fellows to be a part of his team, and this team is representing his products throughout Alberta.
Sure, they may not have gone to school to become a pro staffer, but what sort of training do you propose then?

The way that you are putting it is like they are showing up at the local hockey rink to play shinny and proclaiming to be pro hockey players.

"PRO STAFFER" does not mean " professional " staffer, but "promotional" staffer, two complelty different things, for sure.
Pro staffers promote the gear they are using for either money or
discounts /freebies on gear they use that a company sells.

The only way I get payed to fish is if I win money in tournaments.

I get discounts on gear and a few freebie items.

I can't speak for others but that is my situation.


PS. BBJ you better be ready for the wind down here next time. If it starts warming up it will get real windy. Be ready for 2-3 foot waves on some of the bigger lakes if that does happen.

I would love to know what Qualifies someone to be a prostaffer , I know guys that represent multi million dollar companys , that dont even fish tournaments . Please fill me in .

As far as me I own my company , and I would much rather have someone who knows enough about fishing that can catch them and talk to a few people to get my business name and our brand out there . I think thats far superior then someone who can sit there and tell them all the tournaments they fish and win with there product , The proof is in the pudding when it comes to this business . You see a few guys who love fishing as much as me , catching fish with my lures BAM they are gonna sell .

WOW you mean theses guys get PAYED to fish and get their gear for FREE Is that right? must be nice guys congrats.

Yes All my Prostaffers get at lease one of each product I have , several of different colors , sizes , etc . The Idea is when someone is out fishing and you walk up to them ( THAT BEING NO BIG SHOCK ) say hey what you catchin them fish on , These guys who represent me pull out show them the stuff and hand them a business card or sticker , and then in hope of those people getting ahold of me and buying some hooks . Thats how I rely on business and Since Adding prostaffers 2 years ago business has quadrupled .
And Yes I take the guys out On The boat or free Sturgeon fishing trip . Or Pizza and beer , you know we are a tight group and we are also friends .


That is how I run my business and Thats the way Ill keep it , I might not become the next Berkley , but Remember Len Thompson Fishing company was once what I am today .

You know Ive given great thought to that , And would absolutely love to , I am trying to keep my costs down , as I have never once approched the bank for money , but you are right I need to do some advertising , and get our name and product out there . But the amount of money they want to advertise Is a little deep for my pocket , if I had the oppurtunity to take a small loan I would advertise in every magizne , forum , fishing regs . For a couple of years but thats like 6 or 7 thousand dollars .

This is why guides need to be licensed in AB...:snapoutofit:

Explain to me why guides need to be Licensed so when they hit a little ice they dont hit the ditch . give your self a head shake and Pming any of my Prostaff members is really an upclass thing to do . Well done .

Yup....I sold him some tires for his GF's vehicle....and I watched in amazement as he proceeded to change them on the spot....without a jack and he actually used his teeth to remove the lugs and I have never seen a guy blow up 4 tires with his own lungs before....3 yes but never 4....it was truly a sight to behold :)

in all seriousness bbj, if its your intent to grow your buisness, i think maybe sponsering this site and having a link to your site with every post you make would be a heck of a start. maybe an add in the magazine as well....... but thats your buisness not mine....... just throwing it out there......:):)

Never heard of your tackle until this thread, I took a look at your site and it looks good. I don't really fish jigs and such, but I think there would be a huge market in Saskatchewan for those buck-tail jigs.
