Default Final fish for old blue

I am in the process of selling my Al. drift boat (blue). It has been in storage at a friends house. Drove up and got it Thurs night and decided to take her on one last trip on Friday.

Got this nice 32 1/2" sh.

Old blue has brought us all tears of joy, too bad we have to sink her.

Thanks for the kind words on behalf of old blue.

SS: Reason old blue is for sale is I have 2 driftboats and I don't think I can get what I need for the newer fiberglass one. Wife wants me to start thinning out the collection.

ZaQ, I have been around watching the C team discreetly ( :grin: :shocked: ) spreading joy and hope for those reading the bb. :smile: As long as you young guys are sharing, I don't have to.

As for the fate of the fish, it was returned to the water unharmed to fight another day.

Anyone wanting an experienced fishing partner (old blue), she is currently listed in the ifish classifieds.
