Wendy scores BIG!!!!!

[Frank Walsh]

Butch and Wendy fished their way home on Wednesday, and BINGO, due to Butch's astute guiding Wendy nailed this monster.

Could not happen to two more deserving people. Great job!!!!

Thank you, at our age, it works!

Frank, quote from Butch, " astute? That was the college of hard knocks"

NICE FISH.

And I really enjoyed the photo too. If you notice, nothing is plumb in the picture except for the fish; the shoreline is on a 30° angle; Wendy is off center 10° or so; looks like a few rollers.....ah...... fall trolling. Lot of work, and hard work at times. Gotta like the colors in the picture too.... those grays really bring out the big fish for some reason. Now if Wendy just had a big ole bandage or blood running down one or both hands.... the picture would be pretty much complete.

I've noticed the same thing. Fall means gray. Everything's gray.

Devastated lures, devastated split rings, punctured thumbs, bent hooks, numb fingers, new found rocks... good times. :)

Frank my guiding skills had nothing to do with it. I REALLY wanted to earn that cigar.

So did I.............
