Special thanks goes out to our fearless leader for putting this all together as it is no easy task and very time consuming. Can not wait until next year to do it all again.

Thanks for helping out again Alex. Like you, my thanks comes when I'm on these trips looking down the rail, seeing fish flying, listening to chops being busted, people making new friendships, renewing old ones and creating more memories.
A few great lines and memories:
- Ragusa - "I remember when I caught my first 2 pound fish"
- JMurr after Small Fry caught a keeper - "I hope you get nothin for Xmas kid"
- Joe the Plumbers big "YES!! " and fist pounding when his PUOSU winning and PB fish hit the deck
- Hookset trying to set Joey up when he went to the bathroom and Joey caught him red handed.
- Bobby Quinn coming down working the crowd. I gave him my pole and told him to show me how it's done... He hooks one, hands the pole off to me says "that's how it's done" and I reel in his skate.
- DFish rattling my pole when I wasn't looking and hadn't had a hit in a few hours... My neck still hurts.
- The look on Jarheads face when he reels in a 10 pounder and the mate says " It's not your hook in that fish" and seeing Bobber standing on the other side of the deck with a limp pole and $hit eating grin.
- The always funny and never gets old " THIS SPOT SUCKS "
- The look on the mates face when someone threw up in the bathroom
