GB - Again, thanks for an other fantastic step back in time to the fishy place. Again, we all had a blast and I think all efforts were made to get some nice fish and see if Clammer would pee his pants from laughing. We were successfull on one, possibly both counts .

As a starter to the whole event, Red made a large Stripah out of wood to be mounted in the house to comemorate the Cutty outings for us S-B guys and then it was time to fish

Chet, thank you for the glimpse into the world of the Cutty Bassman. It was an honor to hear some of the stories and what makes a few things out your way tick. It was also an event to watch a master at the helm. The only thing is that next time, I will check my own drags thank you very much , hehehe.... And that boat is a work of art

Yep, second trip to Cutty and both times I only had one fish but it was the biggest each time - I can deal with that. They don't even need to be the biggest but as long as I get one decent fish, I'm happy from the fishing aspect. The commaraderie of fishing with friends was really what made it a blast...

GB - The man exudes fishing luck at the cost of s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g it out from others (OK, so there is some skill involved)

Clammer & Bloo – Definitely the funniest two guys you can place side to side

Specialist – glad you are finding some sweet results with your plugs – that fish might have been only half the size of your biggest this year, but it was the best caught on something you’ve made – wait ‘til you get the satisfaction of a really large fish on a plug you made on a rod you’ve built. (I was happy on catching that fish on a rod I built on an eel that I raised since he was a tiny elver…)

Goose & Red, toss up for the hard charger of the weekend. Red now even has a locale named after him, Bob’s Point, over by the Can-O-Whopp-Ass channel. He pack mules 47#s of gear a long ways for his fish. Goose just followed his instincts and found the best concentration of fish, came back to let us know, and brought several back to the other side of the island to share the fish he found

Chris – I thought last time we probably close in the loud snoring, no way dude, you are by far the loudest….

I’ll throw up a couple pics too as I develop them…
