We finished the Elite Series tournament at Smith Mountain Lake yesterday. I was sixth. And, believe me, I’m happy with that. If I can fish against the best in the business and come away from one of these tournaments with a top 12 finish, I’m good with that.
But I got a bonus. Casey Ashley won, and I almost feel like that was a victory for me. I’ve known Casey pretty well for the the past couple of years. He’s a good young man and a good angler.
I talk a little on this audio blog about my recent history with Casey and with Jeremy Starks and Jason Williamson, another couple of really strong, young anglers.

Mr. Duckett,
Casey is a very good personal friend of mine also. I just wanted to personally thank you for the kind words that you speak of him and all the support you give him. He really is a great young man. I’m so proud to see him get his first win he truely deserved it. I was also proud to see you win the Classic and congrats on that amazing accomplishment. I wish you the best of luck the rest of this year and again thanks for being so gracious and humble.
