It is a fun fight for sure

Saw some kayakers on Holland Cut a long way from any roads that I know on Saturday. Hope they were rewarded for their paddling efforts.

I don't think my buddy will ever float tube the delta again.

With a 4 foot tide comming in it nearly killed him. I had to tow him around a couple of spots being using the oars works much better.. Next time we'll take out my small 12' alum boat.

! Sorry to hear about your camera and cell phone

. I lost a nice little pentax option 10 wp in the delta about a month ago

. It was waterproof but unfortunately it was lost in about 12 feet of water over the boat with no chance of finding it. Hoping to replace it via a Christmas present from my wife.

My wife's love for photography is rubbing off on me as well and I enjoy taking a nice picture almost as much as catching a nice fish

Here is a nice delta sunset I got on one of my recent trips down there.

We had a really good little recording session yesterday and got several tracks down on an old Classic song, Mama Tried by Merle Haggard.

Hope you and the family have a really nice Christmas and look forward to fishin and pickin with you when the opportunity arises!
