I don't know if my schedule will allow it but if it does, I would like to come and help someway. I have my Outback and a Sun dolphin POS. I can take someone fishing or just help at the launch. I'm an average angler so I might not be the best to put the vets on some fish, but I'd definitely try.

Sorry! I have missed the last event and this one also. I was in Florida last month and have decided to relocate in Jacksonville Fl. Our home goes on the market this Friday and once it sells we are headed east. They do have an active HOW chapter in Jacksonville which I will  take part for sure. It has been great being part of the NorCal HOW. Super people thank you for your friendship and kindness. I will miss you all. I will posted reports on my fishing adventures in Florida. Thanks again it has been great! John

AFCM,

Just because you're heading to Florida, (i'm jealous) please look up and hook up with the HOW guys down there. Heard they are a great bunch. Good luck on the sell of your home and safe travels across this great country of ours.

I am in Texas working with the Dallas Chapter of HOW and having a blast. I do mid-week trips with veterans since I am retired and have nothing better to do. Love being that guy in the organization that can do this and wish other chapters could do this too. Having the ability to get a veteran out on a moments notice to get them to decompress is good for the veteran.

We have our big campout this weekend. Just like NorCal has Kelsey, we have this. We get to fish two nice lakes which spoil us all rotten with as many fish as we all catch. We're still trying to get a ten pound largemouth out of one of the ponds and we know there is one in there. Record for the pond sits just a bit over nine, caught by the owners wife. Lots of 5-7's and many 2-3's. THen there are the over populated slab crappies that anybody can take out of the lake since they are "ruining" the owners bass population trying to eat all the minnows.

Well better get my butt on the road. I have to meet up with a veteran who needs a great day on the water. Taking him out to one of our other ponds so he can get spoiled catching bass at almost every cast as well as huge bluegill and crappie.

Thanks! Splashdown for your support with the veterans we need more like you. Being a 30 year Navy veterans I love giving back as much as I can. I have plans to support the Jacksonville HOW chapter as much as I can being retired with time on my hands. Texas is a great fishing state. I was stationed at NAS Beeville for three years in the early 80's and loved the fishing on the Gulf coast. Good times on the water.

Expect Company.  I'll come east and take you Crescent Lake about 40 Miles SW of Jacksonville.  Be Safe.  It was great getting to know you.
