Hard for me to write a short version since this was the first fishin rally I have attended. I arrived @ Elm Creek and was met by a fine gentleman named Jerry, thanks so much to him for making me feel very welcome and for his effort and concerns towards our group. His place is kept very nice and I thought it was really cool that Elm Creek Village has had no other owners except for his family since the lake was impounded.
Craig took extra time off from work to show up Thursday and carry me around the lake as much as the wind would allow. He made a heck of an effort to find some bites and was a very considerate man in the boat and also at camp making sure I felt welcome. It was obvious he would have rather seen me catch fish than himself. I knew a true friendship was to be when he had me run the troll motor for my benefit and when I went to give it back he said dang that didn’t work too long, he was enjoying the break. Then after I caught the lone fish I mentioned that he better start takin a hungry mans aim on em cause I had a commanding lead. Normally I’m somewhat of a loner so Craig I hope yer ears have healed from me runnin my mouth that night. As TD and chief cook and bottle washer, I thought he done a great job for all involved. Atta Boy WB!
Everyone of you were a pleasure to be around, Ron is the most down to earth man there is and a lot more spunky in person than on the web. Skip, you are a “critter”, certainly a gentleman and have a way of making ALL your comments heard whether in jest or being serious. Martha is a dear lady, so I don’t know who set the hook first between you two. Reggie was great to be around and seemed to be the most “serious” of the crew, and was interesting to hear of his travels and experiences fishing different places. I don’t think he got any dirt on him the whole time.
Jeff was one of the most pleasant guys I been around and was interesting to hear him explain how the lakes are out that way. Good thing he’s a pleasant guy cuz I wouldn’t want to see him lose that pretty partner he had, Kerry is a sweet gal for sure.
Danny is cool dude, very laid back and prolly keeps his partner lined out. He loaded me up on some Mesquite too, appreciate that.
William is a big teddy bear, and glad he didn’t get angry at me cuz I believe he could of pinched my head off. Dem beer cans in his hand looked like a pill bottle. Him and David were good folk, good fishermen, and fun to be around.
Hugo,, well……..he was up to true form. He and Monica are a great pair and very outgoing, making it fun for all. Great to meet you both and thanks for the fine grub.
Doug and his Unc didn’t hang around long but was nice to meet ya’ll.
Jordi, just don’t know man. I couldn’t understand a dang word you said and you pert near tumped the whole picinic table over on everybody. HAAH, just kiddin, you have a great family and it was nice meeting you all.
Hope I didn’t forget anyone and I thank you all for makin it a great time.
Tight Lines, TT
