>Greg - your post reminds me of the first day I laid eyes on >the triple trout. Believe the date was January 16, 2005. >Some guy with a fake beard from Japan gave it to me at Lake >Del Valle ;-) > >In all honesty, I did not understand the potential of the >triple trout at that time. I knew it had incredible balance, >a radically different action from anything on the market, and >a unique swivel based hook hanger setup.

That was not just a fake beard--the 'hair' was not real as I have been a skinhead for the past ten years! What I wanted to say in my post, is that it would be cool if we all (including yours truly,) concentrated on fishing and postive things, the fishing 'world' would be a finer place. This is what I like about this forum--it is mostly positive. I am coming out this summer, Rob, and I have some more 'Evil' stuff to give you. BTW, nice trophy on the TT. I have caught a dozen over ten on the TT, but never one close to 15 pounds. Last winter I took my friend for his first big bait trip to Casitas. He got one bite on the 10 inch TT but it was a good one--a double, the big one going 10.2 lb. This pic was published in one of my articles in a Japanese Newspaper. Cheers.. Capt. G
