I have returned!!!

Old Hooker · 02-11-13, 06:12 PM

After being M.I.A. for the better part of two years, I am happy to say that I am back. The divorce has been final for 19 months and I almost have everything paid for, including the '96 Javelin I bought less than 24 hours before all this started.

I met the best thing that ever happened to me about the time everything was going to court and we married this past June. Now if I could get her to fish instead of reading a book every time the boat hits the water.

Now that I am back in action I hope to come by here a lot more often. Course, fishing season is almost here to, so we will see.

Thanks for all the kind words guys. It's good to be back. Things are going so good for me right now it is scary! I keep looking over my shoulder to see what is creeping up behind me.

Hey John, congrats on the new job! How do you like it so far?

bamabassman · 02-13-13, 10:56 PM

so far hooker...so GOOD. i tell oyu man, seeing that paycheck is UNBELIEVEABLE. i made as much in 1 week that i used to make in 2. lisa is of ocurse delighted as well. now she is planning on ways to spend it, hahahaha!! but she is fantastic with our money. i don't care what she does cuz i know she'll use it the right way. after we get caught up on everyhting, she has made plans for the rest. if we do it right, i SHOULD beable to retire in 10 years.

Old Hooker · 02-14-13, 04:20 PM

bamabassman · 02-14-13, 08:17 PM

BUT after i get into it more, i HTINK i can take a couple of rods and a tackle box ( i got a HUGE one too,lol) and hit some spots. hopefully i will get me co-workers to let me fillet some for supper once in a while, but i doubt it. i WILL take pics......and post em if at all possible. when i am in the area of my friends here, expect a holler from me.
