Though I don't golf there is an old golfing saying that says" your only as good as the people you play with", you know what I am saying Dave.

I am pretty proud of that boat. Most people would not believe, contemplate going to the places, in the conditions we have. And most, if I may be permited tp boast a minute, would not beleive the fish we catch, sometimes even I am amazed. Stiffy is the best canal man I know of, period. He brought me back to the beach after my "Fly" thing of 11 years and he was right.

In my life I have fished with quite a few real Striper men. There are a lot of good ones but the in my eyes the three best I ever fished with were Dave Laporte, Dave Kosewski and Eric Lafleur. That's a pretty short list in all these years.

cut the shirt ...steve you know i is da best. lets get the tuna rigs ready,,i think i,m in heat , :r:you ready to mate?????

yep, pretty neat skiff you got there flap.
Remember, you 2 were right there when I followed you guys to a certain place and I hooked up with my very first striper caught on my homemade boat the "Jenna Rose", it was 30 pounds as I recall, not bad for a little 11' skiff. I'll never forget that day, thanks again :D
Your boat is very versitile and has everything you need to do the job you do. Someday I'll get one a little bigger too.
Is Dave praising the boat because it's going in a museum or sumpin? :huh: ;) I know alot of bass have come over the rails :btu:

stiiftip, don't forget the islands casting plugs sometime, those tuna will be here for quite a while.
