Flats Dude's July 17 Article

[Mohawk16]

Gary,

An ending worth waiting for. I?ve had a very limited number of those 30 fish days. My best day was several years ago in Mosquito Lagoon as a hurricane was passing from south to north up our coast. Every cast caught a fish and I was lucky enough to have my youngest son with me. One of my best memories.
I didn?t get out this week. I work at the power plant by the I-4 bridge over Lake Monroe and we are having major problems with three units now so it?s all hands on deck. Hope to get out next week. Catch a lot of fish and keep those articles coming.

Great story Gary. I was reading and thinking "why does this sound familiar to me" when I realized that you told me this story on our drive down to the fish-in in Venice.

Still a great story today.

There's those kinds of days you can't find a fish for friends to catch & then there's those kinds of days when there's so many fish to catch your friends think that they should have quit casting & catching hours ago, long before the sunburn got too red & the water supplies started to dwindle....ex-cept it's nirvana ! Great story FD !

Thanks guys, that was a fun trip. Mohawk, I didn't realize you were so close. We need to get together and do a little fishing with the three east coast guys, Ed, you and me. Would be fun!

You got it Gary. Just tell me when and I'm in.

Sounds good to me,Gary, although you guys are probably out of my league. I'll let you know when we get off this overtime.

Okay, Ed's in and now Mohawk...
Let us know when the overtime thing stops and we'll exchange phone nubers and set up a trip. Sound okay guys?

[FloridaFlyer]

You bet. Now, I know you would never ask Gary, but I'm bringing it up.

What should my "donation" be? I don't know how much it costs you to make one of these trips happen so I'll go by what you say.

If you want to answer me off board you know how.

Thanks Gary.

Heck, I'll be going anyway, we'll figure it out when we get there. I fish with my regular buddies and we just hand the other one a 10 dollar bill. Then we tuck it in our wallet and the next time we fish with someone else, they get their ten bucks back. Always comes out even.

Hey, I can come up $10, can I come? Oh, wait I forgot, I can't come up with the $1200 to get me and the family to Florida.


Never mind.
