It was a great day on the water today. Calm as a lake and the fishing was incredible. We got our 16 legal flounders but we had to catch about 40 to do it. My buddy Donovan was constantly being ridiculed by the captain and constantly harassed him for admiring all the fish which he was not normally accustom to on this boat. He even harassed him for helping me put the fish in the live well.
My computer is down so I can only load one picture at a time. To get the full story and evidence I will download about five photos.

My buddy Donovan admiring and counting our fish to make sure we didn't have over our limit and he gets yelled at by the captain.


Donovan being scowled by the captain. :( :(


Donovan contemplating suicide. What a time convincing him not to jump. Ignore him Donovan. He's an old fart. :'( :'(

Captain Art the old fart. :evil: :evil:


Yours truly

Art I couldn't resist .The pictures were perfect for this story.We had another great day on the water old buddy. Thank you and Donovans for memories never to be forgotten.

   Unfortunately I haven't fished salt water in 30 something years.. Sure brings back good memories though.. Now I live in the Adirondacks and fish for trout and bass... I still love your pictures... Real nice...

It was a good day any time on the water with a good friend is hard to beat.Donavan well what can I say he is a fisher Dog?????,he been that way since he was a puppy.He has taken fish from the Swift River from other Fly Fisherman,he nuts when it comes to fishing.One good thing we saw today was a blitz of some sorts coming back,birds were working some bait which has been a rear sight this year so far a few boats were working the fish,maybe the bait is starting to come in,I going out next week again to do some Bass fishing with another friend on his boat.I hope there starting to come in a little more,it been spotty at best.Dick thanks for everything,we had another fun filled day on the water.If you guys go out today good luck What time are you going I let you take Donavan with you lol.                                                  Art
