First time on the monger two. Great boat and Gerry and john. Nuff said. We had an all star cast of characters yesterday. Number one, thanks for the invite Steve, you put together a nice trip. Number two, I did not get skunked. I ended up with three to seven pounds. Very slow morning for me, I felt like I had a target on my back once I got a couple in the box the sights were set on lefty, who was doing a great job working on the donut! In the end he put a 15 incher in the box. Gdubs was a riot all day, nice fishing with tropics, finreaper, nice meeting urban angler and as mentioned Andrew was on fire with a double limit. The fish in the end edged me out of the pool. Great friends, lotsa laughs and the food was outstanding. Can't leave out MVP. As always, one of the classiest guys I know.

One thing I must learn is that I am getting older. Joey was gracious enough (as usual) to invite me to stay at chez zagorski, but I chose to play hold em all night Friday and head right to the boat. So in the end I was up for 40 hours straight. Like I said, getting too old

Anyway, great trip, great friends and a great time. I'm now off to Florida to spend some time with mom.
