A beeeyooo-ta-fulll sight to behold! ---------------------------------------------- Man that sounds like a blast, Twist. One of these days I'm going to take you up on your offer to take me out on the big pond and wet a line.. Do you take pictures of these great fishing days? It's a lot of fun to look back at those days on the water when they're jumping in the boat and you have pics of it. I won't retire, but I might retread. ---------------------------------------------- Someone always has a camera, but we don't take pics of tourist (but we do sell disposable cameras, for their convenience of course) catch unless its something to write home about, like the billfish that have been getting hooked off the coast of Tarpon Springs,,,small,,,but rare nonetheless. =A0=A0Next time we have something worth taking a pic if, I'll send ya' a few.

If ya' fancy world class bass fishing,,,,,it doesn't get any better than local Lake Tarpon,,,,check it out on the web,,,ranks right there with Lake Okeechobee, but a better kept secret. Spring and Fall is best, but summer can be almost as good in the wee and early morning hours, on occasion. Maybe you could put up some pics on the keyclown bulletin board if we ever get it running. Thanks, Twist. Get it running,,,as Shark said, between all of us, we ought to have one hell of a site to poke fun at ourselves...I'll toss some pics that way............ |
