St. Marks 11-28

Post by CATCH 22 »

After many years of prodding I finally got my Dad down from Newnan,Ga to do some trolling with the sons and me. got out to 25' and dropped the stretches, 5 mins into it "Fish On" with Dad exited to give it a go. The Old man looked at me with surprise in his eyes "I didn't know these things pulled so hard"' All I could do was smile and cheer him on as he got the 30" Gag to the Boat. Next one was His rod again but in His excitement he reeled in too much line and the Gag threw the hooks before I could Gaff what looked like an even bigger fish. Caught 3 more keepers off this hole and moved to the next out in 30' but only managed 1 and some shorts. Decided to take it to the hill at noon before the weather that was predicted showed up, good choice since it ain't stopped rainin since. Glad my Dad got a taste of Paradise, He'll be retiring Dec. on his 70th birthday and now knows one thing He wants to do more often :thumbup:

Way to ruin a normal person take them out and let daddy "G" bang em around.

Next he'll be cashing in his 401k and headed to margaritaville.
Yesterday it was taboo today it is normal what the heck will they be doing tomorrow?
