a few hours ago I get this call from Eddie Tani..."Meet us at the farm at 4"...OK  ;D I get to the farm only to have Alan and Ed make me unload fish for Mr. & Mrs. Tani...Filled their freezer..Soon we get the call inside...Mrs. Tani is the best!

Alan & Ed look great after the SOA trip:

Mr. Tani was the head of the Bureau of Automotive Repair when I had my Quality Tune up Shops, Ed, Alan myself and brother Tom all went to Mclane  High school in Fresno, albeit different years but a small world for sure and the Tani's are as classy as a family as you could ever find

True sportsmen and good friends indeed! Looking forward to next year already. Got the bug so bad I'm back in SD, going out on the New LO-AN going out for 1.5 days to chase Blue fin tuna; they landed 51 for 22 anglers yesterday. Another angler pointed out John Collins is on our our boat, should be a great trip. Thanks for introducing me to a whole new level of fishing!

Nice- Nick should put you on them if they're around. Great boat and a great family has ran it for years.
