This is a solid albacore fishing event that I've attended for the last 10 years as just a friendly event that was turned into a revitalized fundraiser for PHWFF. Over $10K was raised during the course of the event, and a good time was had by all. Lots of big fish were caught, and lots of laughter. I highly encourage anyone who has a hankering to catch big false albacore next year to attend the event. I'll organize it a little better next year and set up a house rental and try to line up boats for people, but give it a look. It's a good time and a worthwhile cause. Of course, we caught a few fish too. In attendance were folks this board will recognize such as Rolando Rodriquez, Beau Beasley, Marty Laksbergs, Doug Rink, Bob Clouser, Blane Chocklett, all the guys you've seen in the RA Beattie film Nervous Waters (the segment titled Bird Chasers – click for link), as well as many more and I'd like to give them a public thank you for helping out with this event.
Took a few days to head a little further south in NC to visit a guide and good friend to chase redfish on both a tailing tide and dropping tide to watch them eat shrimp and fiddler crabs. This is something I enjoy more than most fishing. I'm lucky to have spent enough time down there to know that this is challenging AND rewarding, as I learn something new every time I try to catch those pretty copper-colored blue-tails. If you ever decide you want to try this, give Allen Cain a call - http://www.sightfishnc.com/
While I was out having a good time in the land of pork barbecue and sweet tea, a few others here in the group and from our shop were at the Rose River Farm at the Casting For Recovery 2-Fly For Hope event. I'd like to personally thanks a few members here as well for taking the time to help women in need and raise money for a worthwhile cause – Victor Kernus, Casey Peltier, Davis Walker, Bob Gartner, Kaitlin Groundwater, and our own Ivan Sanchez and Jake Hamilton.I look forward to working with these folks each year and many thanks to everyone who helped or participated.Regards,R
