Nice going Ric, putting your time in finally paid off. I was looking for you last week (Tue), stopped by the Marina you were out fishing. I'm in Salem, Ma until it gets too cold. Where were you fishing Jefferies, The Cove or Northwest conner. That fish will pay for the flophouse and a few extras. Congrats again. If you need a crew give me a call 561-310-7179 cell I lost your number.
