Title: 3/20/2010 - sand crab classic
Post by: alantani on April 01, 2010, 08:59:56 PM
my younger brother took a job in palo alto late last year.  before that, he'd been wandering all over the country.  hopefully, he'll stay put for a while.  it's really nice having him to fish with!  while i fish exclusively salt water, my brother is not so jaded.  his ex-wife once complained, "you know, ed, you really need more variety in your life.  all you ever do is fish."  "what are you talking about?," my brother responded.  "i have plenty of variety.  i fish for trout, i fish for bass, i fish for crappie, i fish for bluegill, i fish for salmon, i fish for perch, i fish for rockcod and i fish for albacore."  

so a few months ago, ed calls up and says, "hey, there's this tournament i saw.  want to enter?"  "sure!" i answered.  and before i knew it, everyone was going.  so we all headed down zmudowski state beach on the morning on the 20th.  

here's ed,
