Very nice!

I'm just a fisherman! An average Joe---I mean Josh. Anyone can do it, really. I do believe the difference between catching and, 'ya know, just sitting around fishing is a decision we all make, though. And I realize some guys just like to go fishing. I think that's great!

More fish for me and my crew

.

I'd like to commend Chris for letting his first ever, surface-iron Yellowtail, live to fight another day. I'm just glad I was there with a camera to capture this moment in time. Not too many guys would do that with such an important fish. The fish was perfectly hooked in the corner of the mouth and instantly kicked back down. This incredible photo is just the icing on the cake!

Josh, my friend, I would like to respectively disagree. You are not just a fisherman. A Guru... maybe not, but certainly not an average Josh. I watched you coach a client into catching a trophy WSB to go along with the one you caught earlier over the weekend. Most of us went home empty handed.

I suspect that you are right when you suggest that any of us can do it. You forgot to add that we need we have the knowledge and experience that only doing it lots of times will bring. Hanging out with a very experienced average Josh probably helps.

I was a running back in High School. That title is all I have in common with some of the greats in that sport. The same analogy applies here. I like to fish therefore I am a fisherman. There are many in our little family who are just like me. There is a small subgroup who have earned a different title.

The few hours that I spent with you by my side one day turned me from a wannabe into a semi-fisherman. I will be forever grateful. You should take the complement that Chris gave you a smile knowingly.

Please keep doing what you do.

Bob

Funny thing is that when you use those words everyone who knows anything knows exactly who you are referring to. Keep teaching, Ill keep learning.

LOL! Im a real life "average Josh".... and I promise you if you spend the day with me results would be MUCH different than if you spent it with the "other" Josh.
I do however believe in the "power" of the letter "J" though

best,
Josh

Josh, I would love to spend a day fishing with you one of these days just to compare. Hopefully the wife will give you a hall pass soon.
