Can we get some freakin' spell check up in here?

Way to start the fever, Rik. I'm looking to get more topwater bites on video this season.

Well smack me with a pin fish. While you were out there doing a fine job. I was paddling around on the other side of that little strip of sand. Boy did I miss it. Congratulations.
Being out on the water in the kayak is the prize. Catching fish is the bonus.

Nice job, camera man needs to hold that camera, or cell phone sideways though. :)
