Since I am the rookie at this they did not allow me to hookup until our last day. We had saved the best for last though. After getting up most days at 4 A.M. and fishing till dark we were a tired bunch. Don't know how the pros do it day after day. Saturday while dozing in the Sun, slack water took my prawn and spinner to the other side of the boat and then it hit. Rags was at the helm and heard my reel singing about the same time I woke up, grabbed the rod and set the hook. That first run was long and hard. By the time we were awake enough to gather out thoughts of where we were and what was going on, Rags and No Pilgrim started to laugh, I had set the hook on the 9.9 HP Yamaha trolling motor. Well, at lease it weighed more that No Pilgrims 25lb.er from Tuesday. I claimed the prize for the biggest one of the week. Sometimes no luck is better than the humuliations we experience. Thanks for the good times guys, now I know what type people you really are! images/icons/cool.gif
