(I posted this on another thread..It seemed fitting here also)
I bow to the Fish King..I am not worthy...
How much for the lucky Visor???
5 yrs ago I seemed to be able to land better fish than the average skilled caster..My friend said I had big fish luck.I had to agree it was unexplainable.Fishing with couterparts of equal or better skills the better fish just took my line.
He called me the idiot savant of bass fishing..
Mike Blows this whole perspective way out of the water..
His five fish total will crest 230 lbs.Thats a 46 lb average..
His average for five fish is better than my personal best..
Unf'nbelieveable...
Way to go...

Its been a pleasure getting the small fish out of the way for you guys
Last night was cool. We talked about the last several seasons and the "bridesmaid" funk Mike was in for too long. "What comes around goes around." was my reply.The guy has always looked out for the welfare of his buddies. This year he's getting paid dividends for his years of goodwill and hard work.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

As good a year as he's having, the guy has always looked out for the welfare of his buddies. This year he's getting paid dividends for his years of goodwill and hard work.

I believe in Karma.We all go thru a funk now and then.I would recant mine but I am afraid to make mention of it.Like the golfer who gets the shanks won't say the "S" word.. 
You guys seem to be having a great time with this whole thing..
I am jealous...of the fun..Although I have to say I am enjoying it through the picture in this tire hub..
Thanks..
Keep it up Mike, you'll get yours..

Thats what fishing with friends is all about..
I honestly have to say I would have been just as happy if either one of you two got the fish I did that night.On the other end of the spectrum.I have seen guys thro coniptions when that happens...
It was never like that for me.I'm just happy to get out there if something good happens it makes it all the much better..
It's just like those who are happy drunks and angry drunks..
I know this..There will be a day when I can't do all the things I can now.It's already getting hard..I'm truely greatfull for the opportunity to enjoy the road my life has taken.Fishing is a big part of that route..
I am sure the memories will hold me over..
Looks like Mr.Redlite is building em up big time...
Gotta go now..
I'm off to Montauk to hopefully to make some new memories..

Jeezus! NIB a philosopher? Amazing what a 40 will do for you. Hate to think what will happen if he gets a 60. Might start wearing a pink angel suit and shooting little arrows at couples in the park.
