Check out the Father's day present I gave my father-in-law. A 9 foot white sturgeon approximately 300 pounds. It took him little over an hour to land. Took us a mile and half down river. Biggest fish to the boat this year. He's lived in Alaska all his life, has caught monster halibut and salmon and I was able to hook him into the biggest fish in 60 years of fishing. Makes a man feel darn good. (These pictures don't do it justice.)

I know it's crazy Mark, who would have thought you and my mother-in-law. Thank goodness you two are still friends.

Oh and thanks for reminding be about Tony's birthday. Happy Birthday Tony V.
