June 24 The Day that Changed my Life

On June 24, 1988 I woke up as a normal 21 year old idiot. That night when I went to bed my life had changed...... That afternoon I was reeling in a 1 pound Spanish Mackerel that I hooked trolling on a 00 clark spoon in Beaufort Inlet. On its way to the boat, something swallowed it. An hour later I had a 66 pound Amberjack laying on the deck of my Boston Whaler. Life would never again be the same. 33 years ago. Holy Cow. If it wouldn't have happened, where would I be?

    It didn't change you life as much as it changed that amberjacks!

    Thanks Hatteras Girls.... I can count on y'all to cheer me up... What up Mike. Mike's new friend is Bronson Arroyo, pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds.... Ah, June 24th< my favorite day of the year. I thought June 24, 2011 was going to be another of those days that changed my life forever. Then came June 25th, I got stood-up and I'm back to being miserable....
