The pleasure was all mine Kenny. Funny, we came to know each other as the result of a disagreement here. Those non-issues are way back in the past. I have to say I have never been any more privileged to sit in a boat with a more knowledgeable and capable fisherman. I look forward to our trips and once we are finished, start looking forward to the next one. I am truly excited about your brother coming down next month. I want to get the 2 of you onto some Barkley redears and gills PLUS some channel cats. I just wish TO could have came down. It is always good news to hear that his wife is doing so well after her heart transplant. I won't tell her you said she was as mean as ever.

Many times we feel the need to start making excuses for a not-so-good day on the lake. The excuses for this day would have been things neither of us could control or do anything about so we just made the best of it.

Thanks to Slab for providing us with such a wonderful forum where we can meet and become good friends with folks from all over the country as well as here at home. It also allows many of us to get re-acquainted with friends and family that have grown apart over the years.

Best wishes on your travels back to PA my friend. Take care and get ready for another week chasing them in a month.

I wasn't going to bring up the gaspergoos!
