[fish raptor]

It was a super trip..... the second for me.

Weather was absolutely beautiful.....one "night fish" had was a tad windy with pretty large breakers but that was just god testing our resolve.

Food was delish as usual..... and the company could not have been better.

To say the event was "relaxing" would be a terrible understatement.

Cutty can be oh so humbling in many ways.... a small step backwards in time....

No sirens, no whistles, no beeping horns, no screaming or yelling. Pretty much all you heard was a few golf carts, the flapping of the flag in the breeze and the crashing of the waves, a few gulls and geese and that's it.

Times like this are very special and you'll remember for a long long time.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words...... so I thought I'd add two thousand.

One pic is of my friend and fine fisherman Steve Usavich. Like we said, it was very relaxing time as this beautiful picture depicts. This one belongs on a magazine.

The other picture is of a rock, but not just any rock. There are a few of them on the island. This one happens to be jumbo in size. That is a 13' surf rod leaning against it.

I look forward to enjoying that humbling feeling again in the future.
