As 2003 came to a close Scott and I finished out our 241st trip of the year. Bill Borrerro from NJ makes the trip each year to Florida and comes fishing with us while visiting. This year wasn't quite on par with the others as the fish chose to be a bit close mouthed, but they did get 25 or so to the boat by days end.

It was a busy day on the lake to finish out the year and friends Steve P, Spectrum, Jimmy Smith, and Don Willis were all in the area enjoying the fantastic weather.

The day before when Scott had Rick Briggs out shiner fishing I had Mr. Willis out. It's kind of tough when you take Don fishing as you have to keep reminding him of what he is doing as he suffers from "can't remember anything" syndrome. He can't remember if he caught a fish. He can't remember how to hook a fish. He can't remember how to keep them on the line if he does hook them. Basically he just can't remember. Last week I caught him sitting in the Wal-Mart parking lot casting to light poles. When I asked him what he was doing he told me he couldn't remember how to get to the lake. Oh well. Happy New Years Don.

See you all on the water. Say Hi if you get the chance.
