So much has changed since I was last on here. I saw the sad news about Bluffer, Rabbit, and Bobber. I was lucky enough to have met all 3 at one of Stan's Frys.
I finally got the bug to fish again after 3-4 yrs off. Got myself a new boat....new to me anyway. Haven't had much luck in the first two trips out, but I hope to get back on em soon.

Still in the same house Tyler. Working the same job. After the ex and I split, I had new "priorities" for a while, so fishing wasn't important. My little brother has taken the Vannoy, which is sitting on a brand new trailer. It's starting to get a little soft in some spots, so he has some work to do, but it's still fishable. I didn't want to mess with it and I couldn't pass on the deal on this boat, so I got it. Sure is nice to have a boat that doesn't beat your guts out in front of the console. Now I just need to find the fish again. _________________ Save the seagrass......Shoot some ducks |

It's all good "Becky". It wasn't meant to be.
At least my little brother had some luck on my boat on Monday.

Hey there Mike. I was just wondering about you the other day. I was on the Island visiting a friend close to where you live.
Hate to here about you and the ex but sound like your moving on...Good for you!!
I still know where those big trout are if you want to go sometime.

Have no doubt that you'll be slimming the deck of that boat real soon. Welcome Back! _________________ "I do hunt and I do fish and I do not apologize to anyone that I hunt and fish." - Norman Schwarzkopf |
