On the Run

Re-reading On the Run. It's amazing the fishing we had at the beginning of the century. The chapter about "Quonnie" stands out.

Also the meeting at Coddington with DZ, Habs, Tattoo, Crafty Angler, Iron Mike, etc. put a lump in my throat. I have fished with every one of those guys.

No boat, back in the suds.

I haven't re-read On The Run in a while, may have to break it out now that you got me thinking about it.

He and Manzi are my two spirit animals.

Fun fact, I dated Mike’s cousin for a while.

Not sure if I ever saw or met you there.... but it seems like a life-time ago. And I know for some, it has been.

Yes, I heard he wants to be part of the nudist camp in New York.

See Jerky Boys, “Sol’s Nude Beach”.

In all seriousness, she is an amazing girl. Things may have been different if I lived closer to Hartford.
