Way to go TFTF! Good for you! There is no way to describe how the journey effects you to someone who has never went down this path. It is profound indeed.

Happy Holidays!!

Big huge congrats Fish - I'm so happy for you! Being able to see such a huge sign of how well you're doing is incentive enough to keep on doing what you're doing!

Hope you guys have continued success now, over Christmas, and of course, in the new year!!

Hey TOO, I can totally relate. This time of year is what I live for. Hunting....winter steelhead....ice fishing. I am currently 3X and will be banded on 12/15 so you are down to where I am starting from, but this time next year we will both be fleet afoot.

"Real cowboys sit in the middle so they done have to drive, and they don't have to open the gate"

Take care.....D.

congrats and happy hunting!

you are a very wise person...
