I am so lucky. After cancer and 2 1/2 years of a divorce, I have had a tough time. But you guys have helped me through the most. The feeling of being part of something bigger. Thank you all.

Okay, who besides me thinks that the cousin's wife is bumping boots with the poolboy? JK, Brew, did you buy a megamillions ticket yet?

You guys are the best. I hope she keeps doing the poolboy. It workes for me. It's Capt. Pat that has done all this for me, and all of you guys. Thank you all for everything. This is some sandbox.

Two trips of a lifetime in the span of a few months. I can only hope that one of my fishing buddies wives starts doing the pool boy too.

If you want to go to the best place to catch bonefish on fly this is it. 5 stars, first class op. best fish I got was 13#. Guides, food, fishing all the best there is. Sightcasted 15 to 25 fish a day.

Brew...
I will never forget when I posted a request here about two years ago about a friend who was delivering a boat to Long Island Sound and needed some local knowledge on how to negotiate a particular inlet (Shinnecock maybe?). You volunteered to meet him on the water and guide him through.. a guy I have never met in person volunteering to help one of my friends by going way out of your way! How unique is that?
In my book, as well (obviously) as in the "books" of many others here.. You are one of the best of the best! Be assured.. what goes around comes around! Maybe one day YOU will be a pool boy!

Forget all this mushy crap for a second.
Landing 15 to 25 bonefish to 13# a day that is insane. That is some REALLY good fishing. Is this your cousin? Whoever it is he knows how to pick his trips. Do these guides see a lot of good fly fisherman generally or just rich guys who saw a river runs through it? I'm curious if they went the extra mile because you could really fish.
Seriously Brew you deserve like 10 fish a day to 8 or 9 pounds. it's not like you've got a year to live or have multiple missing limbs. Save some for the rest of us here!
Seriously, good job.
