Another solo session
« on: October 11, 2021, 05:47:06 AM »
Had a chance to make a short session yesterday, even though I have a cold I'm glad I went.  5 halibut on the sand, two lost during the fight (one was a tank) and missed a few takes.  I didn't measure the first one, it had the LC half way inhaled and I wanted to get it back in the water.  The other one I was super excited, I thought I had finally joined the 30" club, but it was not to be. Sounds crazy, but I was kind of bummed with a 28" hali.  All fish released............................

28" surf caught butt is awesome Verne! I have no doubts you'll get into that 30" club sooner than later.   8)

Vern, your situation with your Dad got me to thinking last night. My Mom passed away earlier this year after a long battle with dementia and heart issues. Thankfully she was able to stay in her house with help from a caretaker. Being in her house was a huge benefit, she knew where she was and was comfortable in familiar surroundings. It was difficult being in Phoenix and her in California, but I called and visited when I could.

You are a saint for taking care of your Dad and making sure he is comfortable. Much like he and your Mom raised you as a child you are now taking care of him on the flip side of life. No one knows the commitment and patience it takes to deal with someone with dementia unless they have had to deal with it themselves.

There is a place in Heaven reserved for you, I hope to see you there someday and we can fish together.

Agreed that Verne has a spot up there, but I already put word in to the big guy warning him about you...  If anything, I said to put you on the "No Catch Anything" list.   ;D

It ain't the catching, it is the time together.
