Over the course of the day, we released over Twenty-Five springs!! Many very close to, and several over that Magical 30 pound mark that bears the title
TYEE!!And to top it off, the weather, predicted for Gale Force Winds, was as flat as a pancake! Just like fishing someone's backyard Duck Pond!
Here's a shot of my Most Excellent
Wing Man working right beside us to give you the idea:
Gotta
LOVE those Southern Gales!!
All too soon our time was up, but all of our arms were so exhausted (as in
BURNING!!) no one complained as we rolled in to the Weigh In Station for the Ukee Ladder Derby! And YUP, the Lady is right there on the board!!
And of course a quick picture at the dock before these
Wonderful Fighters were rendered into some absolutely awesome table fare!!
TRIPLE TYEE DAY! Awesome and then some!!
After Enjoying that Incredible Action, my Anglers asked me over supper last night, "
Can it Possibly get any Better?" My answer was "
Probably"!
These fish are literally pounding the over-sized pilchards back so fast they are growing at an unbelievable rate! Give it but a couple of days, and most we let go will be topping that Tyee status!
At the start of this season I remember suggesting this was going to be on of the Best in memory! It is certainly holding up to that prediction, and may, in fact, top even my wildest dreams!! Unbelievable out there right now Folks! If you have a yen for
Serious Fun, best be dropping a dime on us quick to nail down the last of those precious days we have available! You will be Grinning so hard your Buddies will think you have Flipped!!
Right back into the breech for me! All I can say is
YEEEEEHAW!!! Bring It On!!
Hope to be seeing a few of you bearing those silly
Perma-Grins soon!! I still can't wipe the smile off my own wrinkled old mug!!
Cheers,
Nog
