Work and toddler had reduced my outings to (negotiated) weekends.

No offense intended here guys was just kidding about the amount of fishing that seems to go on from a few here.

I may not be getting out as much as I would like, but I am making the most of the outings I get! This is my 2nd double in as many outings, and the 2nd one came on my last cast before heading home. A hail mary as far out as I could get and WHAM!:cheers:

Very nicely done Gringo sir. I was trying to take lessons but I guess I'm a slow learner, went home about 2 hours later with only one swing and a miss.

Just now getting caught up with this thread. WOW! Great fish gentlemen. Very impressive hauls so far this year.


Ohh and donman, I thought I recognized that mug. What's up brutha? It's Jeremiah. Glad your here man. I see you've been posting a bit.
Let me know when you guys go to the Duc. I just got back from there and the river is primed for the summer runs.

Nice to meet you Chefjake - thanks for taking the pic for me! No worries, keep at it, you'll find your groove.

@ Jeremiah What's up man? I forgot you were on here. I added you on my facebook again (long story). So you just got back from the Duc? How did you do? Hope to catch up with you soon, it's been a long time. How are the babies? And by the way, Scott is a great guy to hang with, he just has a problem with flatulence :-$

@Gringo - Great job, nice fish. Yeah I often do the hail mary on my last cast just to see what happens - usually nothing [sad]

Jens-
That is fantastic the dedication/addiction is great I work in Redmond and am able to get up to the Sky by 6pm on most occassions. Last week went 4 times I am definately addicted I gues I have some work to do on my dedication if you are the standard setter. I however have only limited once so I gues my game needs more work than just dedication and addiction.
