It been a long, fun run but it's time to head back home. Returning to my salt water roots in the Pensacola area as I shift into 3/4 retirement. Plan to fish more and work less from here on out. Looking forward to exploring some new waters and some I haven't fished in three decades.

I've enjoyed being a member of the Big Bend Fishing.net community. There are a lot of great folks on here and a wealth of knowledge. Appreciate bman making it possible.

I'll check in from time to time to offer a Panhandle report. As soon as I unpack a few thousand moving boxes and get the boat barn all ready, I'll be hitting the flats again chasing some reds, trout and of course, the always challenging silver king.

Tight lines and good luck all!

Enjoy the next chapter Dave. Don’t be a stranger.

Stoked for y'all! Have fun over there, be safe, AND WEAR YOUR SAFETY LANYARS

Cheers

I know you've been busy preparing for the move and will still have a lot to do when you get there but don't forget to pay the toll as you pass through.

Enjoy the new place. And please post reports of your adventures there. We all will enjoy seeing them.

Good luck in your new venture, it will be great to hear how things are going on, so be sure to keep in touch.

Thanks for all of you input and information over the years. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to the Pensacola Poon report.

Always enjoyed your post. Enjoy your retirement, I know I am. When catch’n is slow, there’s always Joe Pattis.

Congrats on the move and new house and land. Enjoy those blue waters!

Enjoy your retirement and new digs, Dave. Safe Travels.

Have a bunch of tight lines and good luck. Thanks for past help.

Congrats and many years of enjoyment to you.

Congrats on this new chapter! Thanks for all the info you have shared here and I hope to see more posts from the western part of the state.

Hate to see you go, but best wishes in your new old location!

Enjoy your semi retirement sir. Glad you get to go back home for it. Through your fishing reports for the Shield's site led me to your personal site. Read up a little on your exploits. You have led quite a life as far as salt water sportsmen are concerned. You certainly will be missed but our loss is their gain. I have enjoyed riding along on part of this chapter. May the rest of the story be just as fulfilling.
