Yup,
Thanks everybody for making it such a great time...
Sorry I cut out early...somebody brought me a little surprise that turned out to be a LOT stronger than I expected.
Mikey thinks Jimbo won a big prize with my raffle tickets!!!
Thanks for the award John, and the sticker on the truck, too.
Woke up this am @ 4 in the morning with drag racing blaring on the tv, and Mikey asleep upside down in his bed!
Oh yeah...Greg, if you read this, could you ask the people at the hall if they found my chef coat...I think I left it in there.
Later,
Rick

Thanks JohnR and the rest of the people that made TFCTFN such a great event. I had a good time seeing the guys I know and meeting a few more as well.

I also enjoyed Clammer in the closet, while Habs was trying to convince him it was time to come out of the closet

I saw the star T19, I thought I bumped my head but, I was mistaken

Seriously, I had a great time, picked up a new rod Fishaholic wrapped for me, (wow, Dave) and it is shweet. Thanks to a great raffle I also walked out with a Abu 7000bg

Bring on spring

Used hard and put away dirty....

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.

Hell no, she knows that's what keeps me on my better behavior (out of bars drinking, fighting and chasing the other ladies, not to mention I have something to show for the money I spend) she's actually pretty cool about the fishing and as long as it isn't between 1-5 am likes to go ocassionally. As far as being OK, I've been on the on the other side of sanity for some time now but I'm still a couple of notches behind Clammer.
