Me and the wife made it down to say hello to Adam enkle checked on my Alaska trip met the captain and the owners. Pybus point lodge . Yahoo been waiting 40 year's for this. Seen my buddy James at maniac custom lures talked about how hard we are going to put the smack down on the Bass at Powell. Seen slot of nice boats better be happy with 7 I got. Dam I love my job. I'm just hoping they all run good another year. It pays to do plenty of preventive up keep.

The wife and I had a good time today. There isn't a whole lot different from last year but it is a good time none-the-less. I probably should have gone tomorrow and fished today though.

It was ok. I was disappointed on how little fishing related booths there were, I don't hunt so I didn't bother with 90% of it. I did however pick up a nice shimano rod for $20 and some water proof bags for my iPhone for $10.

I don't own them but I bought them. It's my job to make sure employees and brokers of the company have good success in fishing. I am a lucky man to live my passion. Life is good.

got any openings? Sounds like more fun than my average day at slavecamp!

Buddy at work went down, sounds like there were some good workshops. Said he learned a lot about trolling with downriggers.
I've heard of better jobs...wait...no I haven't!! Sounds like a pretty sweet gig!

Yes it is a good gig. I have almost 22 years in with this company. So believe me I started at the bottom. I used to bag and stack salt for 5 years. Before I got to be a loader operator and then I worked underground for almost 10 years for them too. then about 61/2 years ago opportunity knocked and I relocated to the corporate office in Heber and we discussed about getting a boat and taking people fishing to help boost the sales who would have thunk 7 boats and 5 houseboats later. Trust me it's a lot of work to keep things going. The planning, food prep, the driving, etc. but I wouldn't trade it for anything.

We started using your guys' salt on our parking lot at work last year. Great stuff for a great price.

It sounds like you sir have a very hard job indeed. [Wink]

Keep up the good work.

So where is it that you work? That you talked about using the salt in the parking lot?
