I feel great..........

Went to one of my favorite bass spots. I proposed to her on the rocks. She said yes.
My mother gave me her grandmothers ring. Leah loves it, and it fits her finger just fine. I feel great right now--that's quite a load off my chest.
Thanks for all the advice.

Congratulations! Hope you two have a great life together!

God grant that I may live to fish until my dying day,
And when it comes to my last cast, I most humbly pray,
When in the Lord's safe landing net I'm peacefully asleep,
That in His mercy I be judged, as big enough to keep.

Thumbs up you proposed

thats a given...(and Congrats) Lay down the rules of your time together and your time apart....which is a neccesary thing to keep it fresh and remember the old saying "absense makes the heart grow fonder..." So make it KNOWN that you will be absent because your going fishing and will be back in her arms before she knows it... put all the cards on the table -face up!

Thanks guys. It feels good to me to hear your words.

For me, this coming season could be the hardest fished season of all time. For who knows what may be coming in our future together.

Okay Goosefish - as a married man for the last 22 years let me offer these words of wisdom and advice:

FOR GOD'S SAKE, GET BACK - IT'S A TRAP!!!!!



Just kiddin' - sincere best wishes for a long healthy and happy life together with the future Mrs. GF

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

I made that mistake once... I took my lady on bass tour one day and showed her every place I fished..told her everything about wind, tides etc...
Low and behold, one day I was at place X and who shows up...the Mrs... with a snack and a kiss for me
