Well my dad is here from Vt. the first time he has been down in 5 years! He broke his neck 20 years ago and has some health issues, but hey he is 75 now!
Took him out yesterday on the Ox (his first time since I bought it) he had a great time!! It is a bit of a challenge to get him in and out but with help from Kenny (76 now) and my daughter we got it done!
Took the boat out of the Fairheaven boat ramp and went the 25 miles to a new spot we have been Flukeing at. We ended staying in that area all day, and got 127 pounds of Fluke. He has a hard time just reeling the sinker up most of the time, but he brought up a bunch, he had a great day! For that matter we all did! It was great getting him out again, it is because of him I have my love for the water!! Now I get to return the ocean to him in his old age :news:
The weather was great, wind was perfect, sun was shinning, waves were low for a great ride, he loves the Ox! I am so happy to have been able to get him out again! He isn't getting any younger!
and yes I know :thre: We took them in 3 different cameras so I have to get them down loaded, and I will post them a little later.
