Well... The King has been crowned. Congrats to JLrotary for winning PUOSU VI.

KurtisB got the all important "Yo Dollah" fish on the first drop were there was some decent life.... We lost anchoring conditions to shifting winds and Kenny and Josh were busy trying to keep us on the piece. We made a few more moves and picked a few here and there. Kurtis and Reel Ron had a few contenders and DRod has his limit early but in the end JLrotary (Jimmy Lee) had the right one. I think a few had 3 or 2 some 1 or none. A slow day overall but given the recent reports it exceeded our expectations.

LAB's wife Diane and her son Mick came down to meet us at the boat and we gave her the envelope with all the donations. It was about 15 minutes later when my phone went off... It was Diane in tears. She and Mick got home and opened the envelope and could not believe how generous you all were. I told her I could not believe it either but it was a testament to how much we all cared about them and Mike.

From me and my partner in crime Alex MVP, thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for all the support and generosity you all showed to Mike's family.

RIP LAB.... It was a privilege to honor your memory and do what we could to help your family..... The PUOSU Saga continues but it's not the same around here without you brother.

An email I just got from the Wells Family

I don't know how to thank you all. Michael would be so happy that all of you took care of his family the way you did. Mick, Kimberly, and I love you all so much, and can't express how much we appreciate your help. Again, just wanted to say thank you so much to everyone that was involved in this, though i feel like nothing i could say could truly show just how thankful we are.

Love Diane Mick and Kimberly Wells (and the dogs of course)

Fishing was tough but actually better then i expected & better then what i heard went on in other ports today. I had a fath 16inch keepah, 7 or 8 shorts, a 19inch cod(stupid size limit) 1 philly mako & a bergall i won most variety....i also hand fed a molly shark which were all over the surface Fishing was better deep 75+ & believe it or not greens got more bites then honky legged crabs. Kenny & josh were fantastic & of course huge congrats to my man jimmy lee dude deserves it no doubt & sh!t anyones better then shrimpman!

Most importantly I am so happy this was able to help out the Wells'. thats what this was about if we caught something cool but if not oh well, we all know Mikey would & did do anything for so many of us & never expected anything in return so i'm glad we could help em out. Trips just weren't the same without him not once did I hear he spent a year in philly 1 weekend. Miss ya so much old timer glad we can honor your memory & we need to keep this going every year!
