Surprise party!

We were blessed Sat morning by great friends and a fun trip delivered by Seminole Wind Billy Archer.

Dave was the guest of honor as we celebrated his 60th birthday.

Dave you a one lucky man is all I have to say!

Conditions were a bit tough with the winds and currents but we managed just fine even if we didn't catch a fish it was a time etched into memories!

Ton of pics coming but wont bore you.

Birthday boy!

    Hoping the weekend will clear up. Need to break out the light tackle and chase some bay fish around for a change of scenery.

    Nicely done I got a call from a friend and they need another person on the boat for their trip i agreed and filled the slot. I think it was about 4 years ago Billy is a great boat captain and knows the waters of the PH well. He was also good friends of Horace Posey which also was a great boat captain. RIP Horace

    Billy (goes without saying) and Jimmy make a great team. Jimmy is a good spirited young man and a pleasure to fish with. Billy says "and he's CLEAN!!!" :)

    There sure is a lot to be said about stepping onto a great boat with a great Capt. and having someone else doing all the work for a change. Looking forward to our next trip.
