...and we're back from the rockin' and rolling SOA July 1-4 3-day!

I don't think our bft count could have been more than 20. I counted 13 on the first night drop and remember seeing Alan's second one come up in a subsequent drop on a different school but unless there was a whole other school that bit between 2am-5am that first night there's no way we even sniffed at 30 bft boated. By my count (and what I rememver seeing on the board on the evening of day 2) we had 16.

Then PJ could be right and the numbers were a running count. The 3 BFT may have been too few to have a running count. The last YT numbers I saw was 41 first and a 40 second, so who knows what their system is...

Thanks for all the reports of your trip, yes choppy double swells, can churn up my tummy, I always have one or two travell calm tablets 1 hour before placing a foot on the boat, not sure if I would be okay on the second day though, cheers Don.

I'm still amazed this hols up to my standards considering how sloppy it was out there when I did it

Thanks for the kind words Ron. I re-read my post and it makes me sound like a whimpy whiner. My apologies. I do want to thank David hall for tolerating me as the worst roommate imaginable. At one point I didn't have the gumption to get out of my bunk and get a cup of water to try and down more Dramamine. David was on it. Sad to say about 5 minutes later it came back up. I'm still getting rehydrated, and eating like a horse

Ted,
I still feel the rocking. I too tried to take  more meds on Saturday morning only to run out and right into the chum bucket.

This is a trip to remember, that's for sure.

You think you're amazed imagine how the rest of us feel.....My writing is so bad a doctor can't even read it

Nikola, who are you calling ragtag?

[Calingfornia Dreamin]

Mark, you were certainly one of the most seasoned of the crew. That said, we also had plenty less experienced anglers. All things considered I felt, as a group, we did a pretty remarkably good job converting hookups.


Those conditions took a toll on all of us. I was shocked to see that even you got a little green, that second night.

Since I lost out on the "...that guy..." badge, I'll settle for runner-up as a "...ragtag scoundrel!!!"

Great report Wai!

[Porthos]

Great report Wai!

Will you ever come out to join us, Mo?

[Keta]

Nice Nick.

[MarkT]

So Wai, who did you nominate to replace you as "that guy"?
