Presbyterian Men's Fishing Trip

June 15th at 6:00AM and the Presbyterian Men's Fishing Trip was on. We assembled at the Glenn Miller dock (Glenn Miller, his son-in-law (Kendall Gammon ), Mike Popik, Dave Fosdick, Jack Urion, Ed Mitchell, Dave Aitken and Jim Burdge along with Lady Luck!). Thanks go to Mike Popik for the arrangements, Dave Aitken for the minnows and Glenn, Mike and Ed for the boats.

As for the weather and the lake conditions, we could not have asked for anything better. Surely, we believed Donn had said a prayer for this beautiful day and we all enjoyed both good fishing and good company.

As self-assigned cameraman and semi-official auditor/recorder of the trip, I  now feel obligated to provide picture documentation in support of the fish tales of the day!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                    So Jack, before we get in the boat, do you have a clue to what we're doing?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                   OK Ed, I'll guide you through the high seas and channel markers but first                    put your life jacket on!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                    Hey Mike, the last time I was in something this fast, it was at 5000 feet!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                    Kendall, our secret fishing weapon, a must for the next trip!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                  

 

 

 

 

 

                    First catch of the Day!   Good Job, Jack!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                        Yes Ed, I think we can see your lunker of a fish!  No, it isn't quite the biggest fish of the day but you're tied with Dave Fosdick for the largest object caught (your underwater boulder versus Dave's very visible dock). Dave wins, we all saw him snag the dock!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                     Kendall finally reeled in his own fish rather than hand the pole to us!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                     It's a wrap for us, Mike,Ed and Dave still out there braving the stormy seas!
