He's on his way

Had the pleasure yesterday to be in the boat w/Andy aka/Crappieday for the 1st time since his health issues came upon him last November & was blessed w/slight breezes & plenty of rod bending. Ended up being quite the P/T session for him, before we left the water...probably boated 60 some fish & finished w/somewhere in the 30's for keeper fish over 11" to help his freezer look a little better. Really missed bouncing concepts of bait size, color, & presentation these last few months w/him, as well as everyday "chewing of the fat"...Yep, it was a good ole time to be had...& couldn't think of a better way to finish off the day, to what had been an awesome outing w/some table fare caught last week in the form of some stud coppernose gills I've neglected to ingest for a few yrs now, reminded me of blue crab, in the "working" of the meat off the bone, but oh so good prepared in this manner, glad I left a few not completely fileted.....tight lines all till next time....life is good
