A trip with Dave...
One picture. That tells most of the story. A serious
family illness had made the Christmas holiday stressful. Fishing plans had all
been forgotten. A miraculous recovery allowed me to consider a trip. In steps
Dave Latimer, FishingDL. The trip was in his skiff, to his favorite spot using
his gear (rods, lures, waders, etc.).
After resolving a work related network issue in the wee hours the night before
I got a late start. No time to stop for food. No problem, DL had breakfast,
lunch and a snack for me as well. His worry was that we would find no fish.
After all it was winter and the water temp was barely past the 60 degree mark.
I caught fish. This was among the nicest.
DL also had a great day as I would expect. Outfished me more than 2 to 1 and
ended the day with a slam. How he got a snook in that cold water I will never
know. Thanks again Dave. I have met some of the finest people in my lifetime
through fishing.
