Congratulations to Lance “RedHeron” Coley, who is RiverBassin.com’s basser of the months for January 2009. Lance is originally from Mississippi but finds himself fishing in rivers all over the southeast thanks to his job which keeps him on the move.

Red Heron’s favorite fish is the smallmouth bass and he has caught enough species to make a sound choice. He is one of the few guys in the world that can claim they have caught all seven species of black bass. That is quite an accomplishment Lance so congratulations on that, being named RiverBassin.com’s Basser of the Month for February and your recent marriage!

You too can nominate a friend to become the Basser of the Month by using this form.  If chosen as Basser of the Month they will receive a RiverBassin.com hat and get a special parking space at the front of the store, I mean, site, for the remainder of the month.  Catching big fish or large numbers of fish is not the criteria we base our decisions on either.  The River Basser of the Month should share the same enthusiasm, passion, stewardship and kindness that we like to promote here on RiverBassin.com.

Tight lines and smooth rapids,

RiverBassin.com staff
