WELL IT'S TIME FOR ME TO HANG UP THE TUBE AND COVER THE BOAT UNTIL AFTER THE 1ST OF NEXT YEAR (I'M GOING ON A LONG OVER DUE VACATION). 2005 WAS A GREAT YEAR OF FISHING FOR ME AND A LOT OF IT WAS DUE IN PART TO DISCOVERING TUBING WHICH AFTER 30 YEARS OF FISHING HAS MADE ME A BETTER FRESH, SALTWATER, AND BOAT ANGLER BECAUSE IT'S FORCED ME TO WORK AN AREA SLOWER AND MORE METHODICALLY INSTEAD OF THE RUN AND GUN STYLE OF MANY OF US TODAY. I'VE TAKEN TO TUBING LIKE A DUCK TO WATER THANKS TO THE WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE ON THIS BOARD SPECIALLY THE MAIN MAN HERE TUBETUDE. SO WITHOUT GETTING TO MUSHY, THANK YOU TO ALL, HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A GREAT NEWYEARS AND HOPE THAT 2006 IS AN EVEN BETTER YEAR.
TALK TO YA NEXT YEAR

AT,
Where would a guy go on vacation if he hangs up his tackle?
Kidding, of course. I appreciate your contributions to this website and your help and good pics. In fact, you attached some great ones to your post above. That's a very nice LMB.
When you get back maybe you can describe how you made that little bimini top on your tube. (Not that it would work when I'm fly fishing but I was fascinated with your creativity it when I first saw it.)
Merry Christmas to you, too. Hurry back.

Hey AT,
When I take a long over due vacation I usually bring my fishing gear and go fishing somewhere. LOL ! Are you taking a vacation from fishing ?
Anyway, It's been great to have you aboard and I guess we'll let you go ashore now. We'll expect a short report when you get back. Then we'll expect some more fish stories - It'll be OK if some of them are true at first, but ........ well, you know.
Enjoy your vacation and be safe.
