He’s a blue-chipper, a top seed, the defending champ. Fish don’t count wins and losses. But by the record kept in pounds, inches and days in the water, he’s undefeated. It’s a single elimination world, and he’s still in the game, with a bellyful of losers.

I’m a hack, a part time amateur, nobody’s idea of a lottery pick. Like most fishermen, I do keep count. The numbers aren’t flattering. But as long I keep turning up, I get my shot at the title, just like everyone else.

So what do you say big fella, wanna dance?
