Lonnie has always been my favorite fisherman. I met him on Sam Rayburn lake years ago and he took the time to talk with us about fishing. Glad he's a part of your show.
I remember watching Lonnie on TV and loved his down home approach to fishing. I'm so glad to see him on your show.
Does Lonnie still tournament fish? One of my favs and he does a good job on your show. You two team up well.
