I want to say a special thanks to
Granddad's, Leonard Kruep and Bill Davinroy - They always had us camping and fishing as I grew up.
My Dad, Roger Kruep - for with out him, his guidance and love for Bass Fishing (he's competitive too), I would not be where I am today.
My Mom - Rosalie Kruep, for raising me right (I love you!)
My Nana - For realizing my passion, and loaning me the money for my first (real) Bass Boat - 340V Ranger (ps Paid in Full)
Steve Davenport - for helping in a time of need.. Thanks Steve "O"
In life we all run into "Mentors" that seem to set-the-coarse:
Don Rucks
Don Rucks - For taking a chance on me, as a young man.
Heinz Mantel - A man with which I will never forget, strong, stern and wise He said once to me: "Don't confuse Efforts, with Results" So profund this was, that it still drives me today.
Billy Long
Billy Long - Great Friend, Fisherman and one heck of a quick talker! (he's an Auctioneer) http://www.billylong.com/ If ever in Springfield, MO and need a home, or have something to sell, contact Billy.
