Nice Read Terry,
In true Riptide Form you did what ever you had to to put your friend/charter on fish.
I have a 10 year old daughter who i have been trying to get out with me for a day of fishing, but unfourtunatly she is just like her mother and is deathly afraid of the water and boat.. No idea why, but it is what it is. I keep trying to get them both out but it is a fine line i must walk..
Figures the only gene she did not get from me is the fishing gene.


Imagine a
Portuguese with no fishing gene.

Sounds like the boys had a really good time. Sometimes going out and just bailing fish no matter what kind can be just a blast even for us bigger kids..
