TCTFN was a good time – it was very nice to meet some of the "real" personalities that I see only through threads on this board. Like John I wish I had another hour to relate some of the other stories about the Snowstorm Blitz. I left out a few other stories and recollections due to time constraints. The raffle was amazing – lots of good stuff. The food was excellent!

I also didn't know Clammer was the local Bluefish expert. Clammer, we had a guy that fished with us on Block that had the same knack. He would stand in a picket line of casters on Southwest Bar and while everyone was taking bass – he would only catch bluefish. It was unbelievable! We nicknamed him "Billy Bluefish". That said, it takes a lot of skill to catch those bluefish because they have better eyesight than bass. Billy, and now you Clammer, are in the elite fraternity of bluefish sharpies.

Thanks to everyone who made TCTFN a nice night out.
