Trip Summary

I first met Tom a couple month's back at the Tampa Airport . He was waiting for his daughter, and I was waiting for my wife, who coincidentally happened to be on the same delayed flight from LA. We got to talking and realized we both love to fish, and I told him what I do for a living and let him know how wonderful our fishing is here on the Nature Coast. Man, The Good Lord really has a way of bringing the right people into your life. He contacted me soon after and set up a 1/2 day fishing charter for himself and his good buddy Vong. It turned out to be such a blessing to have these guys on the boat yesterday. As I have said many times before when you spend time fishing together you get to know each other very well, and we discovered we all had a lot in common, especially our love for fishing, and construction as well. These guys caught a lot of fish, including Redfish, Seatrout, Black Drum, Mangrove Snapper, Sand Trout, and Jack Crevalle. After the charter, I sent them to Blackwater Grill Yankeetown for lunch. They stopped back by the marina afterwards and let me know that lunch was delicious, and that they talked about how much fun they had and decided to book another trip in September... Looking forward to another trip with Tom and Vong!!! You won't hear me say this very often but thank you Lord for the delayed flight in Tampa?
