I think there was a chance of a storm so I brought my glass rod with the convench. Still can't throw anything but lead with that thing.

If my memory is right I came back and got a personal best and Nebe almost drowned. I could be mixing two nights though.

Going to definitely try and fish more this year. Not a lot but more...

Best caster I have seen is Texican he can go about 3/4 of the canal with his set up. I just stand there with my jaw open and watch.

The farther you cast, the longer your retrieve. Meanwhile, the fish are breaking just over there while you continue to real and real and . . .

Then if you hook a fish at the start of your retrieve, you better hope it's a keeper, because the chances of it surviving a release are not all that good.

Mixing nights. The night Paul is discussing I told you to bring the spin rod, but we were throwing eels... you walked back, got lost, ran into DZ while lost and finally got to the truck after the bite died and I had released 4 or 5 fish into the mid-20's.. Only Spence.....

the lighting was another event entirely (but not as close as Joe and I got last summer )

Actually you are spot on correct. Nebe went in the suds to land a nice fish I had on and almost ended up as part of the Narragansett food chain. You did get a real nice fish that night also. We were on them that night. Everything was well north of 20#.

No boat, back in the suds.

I've gone in the drink so many times landing fish for people, but yes! I remember that very well.
