He also told me in my lifetime I would be lucky to see something like that again. I haven't seen something like that since (close though). He was right. Memories of filling the boat with Cod will always be with me.

Fishing with Pop was fun. He'd get pissed when you got your jig caught on the bottom, but made everybody reel up and would have #^&#^&#^&#^&y drive around in circles until it was free. I'd give anything to fish with Raymond "Cookie" Ferriolli, Bobby Ruel, and my own personal favorite, Father Romulus, who would get so sea sick that he would scream for mercy to god( not just pray), on the boat. Every. Time. He. Fished. He used to literally kiss the dock when we got back.
I'm blessed to fish with #^&#^&#^&#^&y as much as I do. I want to keep that alive as much as possible.
After Paul's passing, I'm planning on fishing with Butch, Gabe, and Todd for some sharkin. I'm also going to bring my 8th grade bully (but high school best friend) Lou Polverini and Matt Johnson. They don't drink or smoke, like Clamma said.
Finally, some guys on the site:
John Pollack (we've been fishing together plenty in the past).
Night fighter
Slip
Billy Mitz aka the Specialist
Dangles
TFF again
Chris L
JR (no drinkin and smoking on my part)
TTB
Smokey
Big Fish and Slingah
Shawno and Rappin Mikey
Goose, Milo, and Hemdukas
Flap, Jenn, and Bruce
Bill and Jules
If I missed anyone, I'm sorry. I feel like I was present for fishing with a lot of my heroes, just not there 100%. I'd like to give it another shot the way that things are for me and some others now. I'm pretty sure I'd have a lot more fun!
