Bait is showing up here real thick! headed out with my friend Captain Mark Phelps of Shore Thang Charters. Ran about a mile off the beach. Caught some kings and albee’s on fly! My date stamp was a day off Sorry! Olive and white clousers on sink tip and intermediate fly lines. 10lb king smoked about 175 off me!
I can’t see the pic, however, Geeze, I can plainly see your signature line at the bottom of your post.
I have a big surprise for you at the next year’s fish-in. I’m personally going to guide you to one of my favorite spots (big evil grin). It’s called the Hotel California Hole, such a lovely place indeed…(another big evil grin). Sharks love to play the “jerk” game. (hysteric laughter)

I can’t wait, each year I learn from my mistakes. How many can I make in a lifetime. forget it you will loose count
I might come down early for a crash course with one of the other veterens. Poor Gil put me in all the honey holes and all I got were dulled hooks, a scratched yak and a gash in the flats boots from the oyster beds.
Eleuther April22cnd and I know I’ll catch me a few bonz, a real carribian pilot
Ya know now that I think about it, maybe its the smell of the kalik when I wet my knots on my fly. MMMMM
The Geezer
I know there are fish in salt water, I just haven’t landed one yet in Fla.
A reward will be posted for any angler willing to assist an old Geezer.
Phil, with all of your trips all over, just give me a buzz when you get near the east central coast of Florida.
Reason? I just gave that little skiff to my son-in-law and Linda and I just ordered a new Carolina Skiff V-series 1765 with a Suzuki 4-stroke 70 hp engine. It’s being built as we speak. We should have it in three weeks. Now of course I have to take Linda quite a few times to break it in…but it looks like I’m getting back into the guide business again.
She’s a great looking boat and we water tested the 19’, but I was a little concerned that poling in heavier wind might be a little difficult.
So, Geeze, if you and Michelle get over this way, we’ll see if we can finally get you and yours on a few redfish. We got three Saturday…well, I got a dink and Linda got two nice 'uns.
Gary, Thank you for the offer. We get back from Eleuthera on the 28th and we will roam around for a few days and might just give you a call. Michele asked me if we should load the yak and canoe and I told her no. Hopefully we can work something out. Sounds like a great outfit and I wish you luck with it.
Appreciate the offer
