It's been said many times, but thanks to Dales and Fran. I didn't take home any keepers or any of the raffle prizes (thought I might be due after putting a "goose egg" in the cooler

), and probably donated half of my bucktail collection to the rocks, but still had a great time nonetheless.
Got to meet Gerry, his brother Joe, Fran and many of the other faces behind the names on this website... nice to fish with guys like Dales and Larry again... and I don't think I've ever had a bad time fishing with Lefty or his crew on board!
These trips are never short on laughs -- throw in a couple of beers, a good cause and good company -- and I'm in for the next trip.
