Sounds like a pretty fine day once you got started. Always happens when you're in a hurry to get somewhere; but, overall I'm envious. Beats yardwork.

Tom, I should have known when the girls and I passed you and Chalk at the landing, all y'all had left us was some catfish@!

You said it was slowing down but I was hoping that a couple of hours into the rising tide it would pick up.

Got a few shorts and some fun action for the girls when they hooked the cats.

Good day out anyway.
use your opportunities ...
