Nope,
Can't sleep...Got the ex-wife coming over today for hopefully the last visit FOREVER!
Also have the President, Corporate Chef, and all of the Northeast RM's coming to my restaurant tomorrow for the Q4 new menu rollout presentation. Thinking about going in early to clean.
Later,
Rick

If this is true 8lb test, it didnt take long for Alberto's spring pending IGFA record to be broken. Two good fish on some light line.

I fish a men's Spalding. Slow retrieve, at night.
In May and early June a women's globe trotter ball is killer for schoolies.
