The highlight of this year was just being back home. Where it all began. Which gave me a chance to fish with some old friends on a regular basis, and meet a lot of new ones.
Memorable moment---fishing with Slip, Mac and Backbeach after the Cape leg in July, and having a 25 lb fish somehow trash the drag in my Nautil, to the point it was running downcurrent like the new world record, having it find the bottom, on the opposite side of the bridge abutment, somehow come loose, and having to almost handline it back in, around the abutment, because the reel had no drag pressure, and finding out that 50# Big Game braid is pretty good stuff in the process.
I ordered my Saltiga the next morning
