I know Parquito already started a series of these, but I'll supplement with a few of my own... although not necessarily in Kronologikal order.

Thought I'd kick my series off with the pig of the trip. Credit goes to my bro Noel, and our tireless oarsman "fishook" who hosted Team KeenEye on the last driftboat Monday of the season.

It was a beautiful sunny day, and the float from Centennial to Harry Gaines proved to be uneventful. Well, that's if you don't count the half-rack that disappeared over a few short miles of river.

Things finally got cooking at Big Eddy where my bro bounced up this brute. Couldn't keep him in the hole, so we lost any other chances of hooking up at Big Eddy. Finally put this one in the bag a 100 yds above camp at Riverbend. He measured fork length 51 x 30.5 girth... or about 64# on the fNp Kenai formula. Asked him if he wanted a Release-A-Hawg trophy mount?

"NOPE.... saving it for an 80-plus," he said non-chalantly.
