The best thing about this cooler is it's mine and it's in my boat. Sunday was a great day on the bay. The forecast was for good fishing from 2 to 4 pm. Two of my friends from high school and I left about noon. The winds were light from the northeast and predicted to change to southeast later in the afternoon. We stopped first at Scotch Tom Reef. We picked up four good sized keepers pretty quickly, but it slowed. We moved over to Half Moon Reef and the wind went slack. Every cast there produced a trout. We caught about 16, but only two keepers. It was fun. Then the wind turned from the southeast and the bite totally stopped. Two o'clock was supposed to be the best time, but that's when all the action stopped. It was good to see birds working again although we found only gafftop under the birds. It was like old times on Aransas Bay. All the trout were solid keepers. The painting crew was back at work today working on the 400 building. Other owners who came in this weekend also found they had televisions that were ruined by the storm. I'm still working with adjusters to get my loss covered.

Great fish story. Love to hear about the success. I really like the bucket with the rope handle . . . very nice.
