Title: The Good old Days
Post by: gstours on September 04, 2018, 02:27:27 PM
    Here is a great short clip of trolling for king salmon near where I live.  It was in the late spring a couple of years ago.
Ken has since had serious health issues and cant fish right now.  His future is in the balance with chemo and other sad things.
   We all live until we die,  so watch this clip and say a prayer for my good neighbor.    This video is sure to stimulate somebody who isn,t fishing today for whatever reason.    I,m currently out of state and attending a funeral.   Enjoy your fishing and family often. ;)

Thanks for the kind words.  Ken might be down butt,  he has a good attitude, a great wife and sure wants to use one of his 2 boats.    So I try to take him when I can as sometimes it's a flat sea even up here.
   We got in a half day a couple of weeks ago,  sure good to see him smile again.
        Good luck and health to everyone.    🎣

  Another great shot of smilin Ken,  He walks with a crutch to the boat,  You know he has grim determination.  What a friend. 
    One day I asked him if he was up for this,  His reply was if he was invited he certainly wassent goina stay home.  8) 8)
