:wavey: July 4th-1996-8:30am-brite sunshine.

I had no goal other than how can I get the wife to let me go fishing more. [ honey do this-honey do that] I just liked to fish.

I will say this...the best part of fishing is in the hunt,,

Been doin' this about 40 years. Since I was 16. Never got a 50. Best is (2) 42s. One at Narrow River in Oct 1996 and one in the back of the Charletown breachway in Sept of 1992. Both on live eels.
