[Uncle Luna]

I know it's been said numerous times but thanks again Trish for catering the trip today. Food was on the money, . And to everyone else involved with making it happen.
5 more months to our annual dinner See you all soon, it will be here before we know it.

So apparently my sleep deprivation and "Comfort" took hold before I submitted last night , thus no post last night! Great time yesterday meeting more members and faces to names. Trish, awesome job with the food and your time to make things as many have said. For all involved in pulling the trip together, great job, I know it's a daunting task at times, greatly appreciated and look forward to other chances to get back out there with the site members.

[Capt. Carl]

Sounds like a great time!
Trish....u are the best caterer I know!.....and a pretty good fisherwoman to boot!

[Ms Fish]

Gooooooooood Morning Family!!! WOW! What a day yesterday! As always, I giggled and smiled all day long! What more could this girl ask for then to spend the entire day with guys like you!!! Ok Ok maybe a keeper seeing as the 5 shorts I got just didn't cut it but Mark was super nice in giving me his keeper to make for mom and I!
THANKS MARK! 

You're all very welcome for the goodies! It truly is my pleasure to take care of you guys and I'm happy everything turned out ok! Always know that I am open to suggestions on what you guys like or what you want me to make. Seeing as everything was pretty much gone by the end of the trip, I guess I did ok this time around. So with no further a-due (I don't know how to spell that word a-due ) here are all the photos I took! My apologies I didn't post them last night. Even though I am a trooper and can stick it out with the best, I was just beat up by the time I got home. All I wanted was my TV remote and my bed! LOL Thank you all for letting me in and accepting me for me! Love ya's!     Trish

Some more....

First, I would like to thank all those responsible for putting this together. I know it’s a lot of work, time and frustration so it is much appreciated.   Jake and I had a great time.  It was great seeing folks I haven’t seen in a while and I caught some fish too.  I would like to make a few observations from yesterdays trip.

1)NJBob actually a kind, sensitive, caring person and really loved by the mates.
2)Big Al’s brother wears girl socks.
3) A plate of Jumbo Shrimp place in front of me doesn’t last long.
4)Kenny can eat a whole cupcake in one bite – I saw it with my own eyes, twice.
5)Trish’s cupcakes are moist and delicious.
6)I can’t speak for the TEC’s but Trish’s PEC were great too.
7)Treebeard not only doesn’t mind when you grab his ass, he likes it,
8)Yes the square end of the board is much warmer then the pointy end, but the real men hang in the pointy end.
9)You can put lots of crab parts and bergals down the back of Jakes bibs and it doesn’t slow him down from fishing – only food does.
10) What the heck was second place?

[Ms Fish]

Another grand adventure with this fine bunch.. hard to expand on whats been said, other than to say my face still hurts from smiling/laughing so much.. Thanks to all the guys  who worked to put it together..    and especially to our lovely and talented caterer for all the great food, and for recording the trip for posterity with the pics.. I'm ready for the next one!

The full moon in the cabin that Skip provided might have effected the bite.

I hooked up Paule with a special Kansas City Tog rig which is know for producing well in the mid -west.

For the "Real Men" that didn't get to see it first hand because they were freezing their jewels off with no funk in the pointy end of the vessel....

[Hotrod]

Looked like a great time..

[Luna Sea 5]

Nice trip everyone... Looking at the all that clothing makes me feel COLD.. LOL.. I like fishing topless, so this wouldn't have worked for me.. lol..

I seems like if I want to eat good, I need Trish and Uncle Luna on my Luna Sea.. Uncle Luna is great for breakfast, and Trish for Lunch.. Oh.. and one young stud to lift the anchor.. lol..

See you guys at the party and on the water in the spring.. Stay warm my friends..

Received a call from Johhny Oz this morning. As much as he wanted to post on his winnings he was unable to do so due to computer difficulties (he needs one that works and is more user friendly ).

Anyway...John wanted to extend his sincere thanks to everyone who made this trip possible. He is ecstatic about his winning the custom rod and Canyon reel, fully loaded with backing and 300 yards of 50# power pro line. He wanted to thank Phil for his excellent job in creating this quality product saying he finally got a good look at it today (using his much needed glasses to really see what's happening around him) and was highly impressed with the quality and thought that went into making this fine addition to his arsenal (yes, Johnny brings 4-5 rods aboard the Irish Ayes every trip  ) (note to self...next year we go the airline rule, 1 carry on, anything extra $25 an item. Just think, with that, I could retire. Oh yea, I am retired ).

I would like to thank Kenny for his tireless effort in putting this trip together. I was behind the scenes and know exactly what Kenny was dealing with in lining everything up to make for a perfect outcome.

Myself, I had a fabulous trip even though I only managed to catch one short, and that was after I stole Bucktail Bob's rod-n-reel after I broke off yet another rig to the bottom.

And I can't forget the food, of which I partook (is that even a word?) in several times throughout the day, great catering service. We MUST use the same caterer for future trips. 

Kudos to all who attended, the captain and crew of the Sea Horse and those tireless workers who made this happen.
