Seasons Highlights

[The Dad Fisherman]

As Always, The Cutty trip was a highlight.

Having the 1st North Shore S-B Leg and meeting some different guys from the board.

The 1st Annual Bomba Ice Fishing tourney was a blast also.

Watching my daughter catch a 4+ lb. largemouth on her own was awesome.

July LMB fishing was amazing this year....banged 3 over 5lbs and a 1/2 dozen 4lb'ers....all within 5 minutes of the house.

Caught a couple of Nice Carp earlier in the year. Gonna target these fish more often next season...a lot of fun on freshwater tackle

and on a personal note......since I didn't get out fishing the salt as much as I wanted, I usd the time to get in shape....dropped 60 lbs. and am sitting at a comfortable 192 these days.....lightest I've been since I was 19. Looking to get down to 185 and hitting the gym this winter

[Sea Dangles]

Fishing with my oldest son in the canal this Spring. We must have released close to 30 fish between 20-30 pounds on Memorial Day
Caught a 180# tuna on my VS 275 which was a hurting highlight.
Managed to put up a 40 for an ASA tournament in Ct. this summer to put us in the $$$.
Another 40 class fish from shore this year which helped Team Striper win the Cup again.
Lots of shooting stars,breaking fish and awesome sunrises to enhance the senses as a bonus to what is already quality time.
Lots of laughs with good friends trying to figure out where it all went wrong this season.
What I would give for another warm morning with breaking tides at the canal to ride around and BS with some of the fine members of the fishing community.Oh well....next year.
