For me , the season highlite was the SB.com 4 leg tourney gatherings. Got to meet a lot of new people and got to talk to them while sharing food , etc. All 4 gatherings were great with the last attracting a lot of people. My pleasure to make so many new friends.
For fishing stuff , the Mystery tour with BC and FW and the night Smokey and I went out with Chet Hathaway aboard the Nor-easter stand out in my mind. I guess they stick out cause they were different.
Overall though , our normal friday night ritual of me and Smokey going plain old fishing is what I most look forward to. It may not be different like the charter or the Mystery tour but in all honesty I could live without the unusual (even though they were highpoints) but I would be very unhappy if I didn't have friday night fishing to look forward to every week.
One other big event this year was getting into rod building big time. I enjoy building rods and with all the tips I've gotten from Al Goldberg , Mike T and George at Murat's , I was able to really compress the learning curve and make some nice rods right away. My thanks to those guys.
What I missed most this year was fishing with Tim and Charlie. We got together lots two years ago and last year but this year , despite meeting up for breakfast at Quintals , we didn't get to actually fish together much. Hope we improve that next year.
