 Saturday Spare said he was taking the Mckee and the girls for a boat ride Sunday morning, he called me later that morning and said the girls went to church and he was working on something around there.As much as I hated to do it  I carried my V (inbd/outbd) up to the Volvo guy to see if he can get my hyd cyl's disconnected from the transom shield and do the rebuild on them.I had a great time, I wanted to see everyone Sunday but it just didn't work out. I did see a anchor (like Captn Pete's) in the window of 1 of the marina's I stopped at. His is called the claw and I remember seeing them sold at West Marine and Boaters world.

Melissa and I checked out of the BW and hit the Battery downtown around 8:00 - 8:15. Capt Pete & Michelle were already gone. Sorry we missed you GarageNC. You guys hold the fishing title, hands down. We placed third.
 Walked the piers where the tall ship was moored and hit the Aquarium before departing. Thanks again to everyone, it was like we were a group of old friends. Having sustained Absolutely No Collateral Damage this weekend was sweet. Aside from my navy anchor (off the flats boat) being near useless in everything but puff mud, and a loose nut on the VHF antenna, we were golden. Big thanks to Willy and RWilson for fending the V off the dock at the Marina. I drifted too close to the seawall by not paying attention and nearly crashed the dock trying to get turned about.  Kinda embarassing. I tell Melissa all the time,"Skin grows back, gelcoat costs money." (Well paint in my case;-)

Hey Lee sounds like you treated that fish RIGHT. Did the room work out alright for you?
Reel, Addie sounds like a fine young fisherwoman. Be sure to keep her BF in check (as if you don't) and remind him often how good he has it. I'm very proud of my 2 daughters as well. Can't wait to get my oldest (13) out this summer. She's been asking me every month all winter long if she can go with us. She wants to get out there and catch some fish! I love it! Sorry I didn't get to meet you guys.

WOW, sounds like you guys had a great time....wish I could have made it........umm...wait a minute..was I there?
What can be said that wasnt said before....great time.....not really sure if I can classify the weekend as a 3 day party or 3 day hangover....I think maybe both. The 790 mile tow each way was a breeze...no traffic, no mechanical issues and constant conversation with Willy.....He's got 28 hours worth of stories and I still dont think his bag is empty yet....lots of entertaining stuff. The mechanical issues between the tows were enough to make me want to just quit right there and start drinking some more but with everyones head together things were solved pretty quickly....to name a few., engine runs out of control, idle on day one was so bad I thought it was gonna be a washout on day 2, bad switch on the electric winch, cable gets buggered up in the hook on trailer, running lights go out Sat night at ramp....Was like a Greek tragedy. But as they say alls wells that ends well. Thanks for everyones help! And to correct Mr Ozzioe, for the record we boated 6 redfish and lost one. but Lee, Pete and Michelle still kicked our ***....Sunday night back at the campground we picked up some FAT angus steaks and had us a cook out with steaks and grilled redfish.....good eatin. I'm at work now and my *** is draggin'! Hope to see you local guys shortly when fishin' season starts up and definitely in Barnegat Bay this summer.... Having problems getting online at home so I'll get my pics up as soon as I can...I simultaneously was shooting video of Ridge's boat while Ozzie was shooting mine so I'll see if I can get it up here.
