Congrat's John. Looks like all future Thanksgivings will have a special meaning for you. My first was born on April 15th (tax day), but I'm affraid that didn't make it all too special down the road, lol.

Hope your wife the the little surfcaster are doing well, tight lines.

Congratulations John !
Great way to start off the Holiday Season! Hope all is well with your wife and the "newbie". Let us know how big this "keeper" is will ya?
Best wishes to you and your new family!
