Hey Jerry, what's that triple chin guy doin' with my fish?

Thanks again Jerry. I had a real blast. Worth every dime! Just talkin' about "fishology" was a big deal for me. And the catchin' was real fun also!! You gotta be damn proud of Owen, he is one heck of a deck hand.

The fry went very well. My oil got too hot and one or two batches got a little burnt. Everyone said is was fine but they were just being polite. I broke in my grandbabies on eatin' crappie. They ate a bunch! I left the stripper with my son in law, he's a pretty good cook and wants to try the "boil".

Fishbasket - Yes the weather was good. The rod tips were freezin' up when we first started in the mornin' but once the sun got up a little bit no probs. When Jerry hammered down that bad*** 200 horse, you had to make sure you were zipped up good! We were at one of Jerry's spots and all a once his crappie pole with a jig and 6lb line bent over and strarted singin', he turned around, handed the pole to me and said, "reel this stripper in"! It wasn't a big fighter just keep tryin' to go deep and get away, but we wore him out and got him in the net

Slab - Jerry set me up with 2 poles, he had 1 and Owen had 2 goin' most of the time.

Sorry for the delay in responding, had my hands full for the last 10 days.
