Default My Absence!

I just wanted to stop by and say hi! I have been lurking for awhile trying to recover from life, I wanna thank all you guys for the fun over the last year, Especially Ed. When I do get my **** together I am planning on buying a retired commercial boat from Alaska 35' twin deisels and 6000lb fish hold!

Talk to you all later, and have a Happy Holidays!

Thanks for coming back John. Now that those things are behind you, you can start working towards getting back to the important things in life like fishing!
I have had plenty of good times and firsts fishing with you the past years! First sturgeon, first halibut, first chinook, first coho etc etc.. I have appreciated all of it and I hope your Xmas is what you want and deserve. I am sure we will be back on the water together next year!
,Ed

sturgn - I'm in on that overnighter! I think we can get 4-5 boats and have a roll call/flotilla out about 100! Wooohooo!
Sounds like you get to be the "Mother Ship" if you get a 6,000 lb hold!

John,
I'll tie onto your stern and let you tow me out to the deep blue. WE can fish both boats for the duration of the trip and I can hitch a ride back. That way I can have enough fuel to enjoy the 100 mile adventure!

Ed you know you dont need a bed! But I am gunna install somekind of muffler system for your DEEPBREATHING(haahha whatever you want to call it) While you sleep, that rumble that comes out of you might knock 3 maybe 4 knots off our cruising speed, but then again I have heard that fish are attracted to vibration just not sure if the frequency and duration you got going is gunna work, we may have to get some hitech measuring devices and see just exactly how the frequency and duration of your snores oops I mean Deepbreating affect tuna, ooooh I know I can make the muffler for your nose adjustable maybe we can vary the intinsity enoug to bring up those really deep fish. Wow we may be onto something, what do ya think wp?

I think you are really going to make WP choke on his coffee! :grin: Are you trying to tell me I should change my name back to deepsleeper? :whazzup: I don't think that is really appropriate. You know all you have to do is whisper "fish on" and I am awake with the pole in my hand! That doesn't really sound like a deepsleeper to me.
