Well, what can I say. I went to the meeting up at CJ's in Boyton Beach, It was great. I really had a fantastic time. All the people there were friendly, they spoke to you and shared information with you even though you just met them.
Coming from up north where we fish the canyon very few people would share information with you. If you weren't in quote "the circle" the other fishermen at the docks would send you on a wild goose chase looking for tuna and marlin. This was not the case at this meeting. Ron, Steve, Cliff and Mitch the information that you shared with everyone was extremely useful and I know a lot of people will be incorporating it into their next Swordfishing trip. The captain that was demonstrating rigging techniques, the way you showed how to rig squid for trolling will definately come in handy. I can't wait to try it out.
What a great resource these forums are. The information that they provide can help make a lot of unproductive trips successful, just by changing one little thing that you picked up at one of these meetings.
I am glad to see that us fishermen can come together and have a great time, share information and help each other out. In my opinion that what fishing is all about.
Tight Lines,
Scott
