Very nice Don.
You deserve it for all the long hours you have spent out there, and with a long drive home as well. ![]() |

Don,
Dude, after 8 hrs on the yak, my stomach muscles start to hurt big time. 14hrs? Then drive home??? But I guess with a large WSB and a bottle of diet coke, things are just honkey-dorey!! Way to fish!! Persistence, it's the only thing in life that works! |

Awesome fish.. If I'm not mistaken you were out on Friday as well?
That's a sweet "upgrade" There is no way I could do 16 hours on the water- that's impressive ( I think I did 12 one time, and I literally had trouble walking back to my truck after being wet, cold, tired and dehydrated!) Then again, its hard to call it a day sometimes, I know the feeling. |

Sweet fish Don. Congrates!
I grew up in Pedro. Went to Taper Elemetary in the 70's. Good times. Steve |

Hmmmmm...
Two trips with a total of eight hours driving, twenty-four hours of fishing and a 100% success ratio on monster WSB. Persistence, patience and confidence pays off, again.
I don't think I need to tell you that anymore...your diploma is in the mail, Don. ![]()
