STRIKE ZONE

Robbo goes to bed early doesn't he? And women don't like him.

Staminher goes to bed early too, but the women love the beard!

Congrats on a great trip. I'm on the same drift with Parker, a few more years till school starts ...then it's on again. Any pics of the "NIghtlife" or is it what happens in panavegas stays in panavegas??

Oh ya....LEARN TO SCUBA! +1

A well-told account, Stam. I would love to take a trip like this. Some very nice pictures to boot. I've never heard much about Panama scuba diving, but I have been to Costa Rica for diving, and that was fun.

Bimini knot's are easy to tie if you need a very secure loop knot. Even works well with braid. The tricky part is not cutting off the wrong bit

I think being single is working for Stam.... I never did figure it out the way you have.For some damn reason life gets in the way...My excitement is traveling to Washington how twisted is that? I have done some of that blue water fishing in Cabo, nothing to compare to yours but I can say ALL of those big fish kick your butt, pure adrenaline, thanks for posting sir...

Soo sweet...

...so you were there??? I did that in the practice session

I was so proud of my first working bimini...it doubles the strength of the last foot or so of your mainline above the swivel, I had attached the works and was ready to cast before I realized that I had not threaded my line onto the rod....it was just hangin' straight off of the reel. d'oh.

do-over.

Must have been too much sun? Locally bottled spirits? Off camera, raven-haired babe in a bikini that was your secret deck hand? One eye on that departing school of fishies off the stern?

I guess even Master Fishermen have a do-over every once in awhile

Loved this post stam. Hanging out down there with the entertaining likes of you and Vedder would be memorable!

I think that was the best post I have ever read.

Yeah Stam the best part of Panama is you don't need a frying pan to cook breakfast, that is one frickin hot place !!!PEACE

Beautiful post/trip dude. . . . . . beats the hell out of bouncin around the Strait in seastrike's boat out of Seiku heh? (no offense Dave)

Definitely a trip to look into for the next couple of years. Thanks for sharing!

Panama is the happening place. That was one helluva a trip and post. Thanks for sharing.

It has taken me 3 days to get over my jealousy enough to say great trip and thanks for the pics and descriptions. I can't wait to hear the "real" story.

Here's a couple of cropped close-ups.

I was reviewing some video last night, I have one awesome clip that I will get to Sol? Parker? Bob?...or anybody that is closer to Enumclaw that knows how to post up on U-Tube, I know that there is some incredible trip video out there, but most of it is on other cameras.

My camera records onto those little miniDVD's...looks like I need to broaden my horizons and go techno geek now.

don't turn into parker....it's not worth it

Send the vid to me and I'll upload it to my youtube account and link it here.

Or, if you want a *quality* movie, send it and my memory card to me. Might want to make sure you've downloaded all those photos off of the card, FIRST! Right, Dan?



No kidding. I'd be lying if I said being computer geek was all about the women, glamor, money, sex, and drugs.

Listen to what Mark says! Don't get a job and live with your parents until you are 50. It's the only way to go! Right Kid?

I'll second that. Parker has done me right on my BC footage.
