good to bad to good again
Decided to make an afternoon trip. Launched the boat, made the 25 minute run. Myself and a buddy make our first casts, within seconds were both hooked up. I land a flounder he lands his first ever speck. 5.3 pounds. I am all excited, he says "what is this a big one". Beginners luck.
We were on a steady bite, 30 minutes into the trip my cell rings. It is my wife crying, phone going in and out of reception. All is here is my daughters name and ER. Phone dies. I am freaking out, I keep trying to call her back while my buddy is trying to text message her. Few minutes later I get her back on th phone. My youngest (1.5) knocked the hell of out head and couldn't stop thowing up. Put the hammer down on the 250, flew in, hooked up and headed to ER. They ran several test said all the vitals looked fine and didn't recommend a cat scan b/c of possible cancer risks(never heard of that).
Anyhow, she is back home and doing well. Thank God. Finished the trip with 14 specks, 1 flounder and a damn near heart attack.
