Good job. Jimmies finally outnumber the sooks.

DNR-ette figure out how to pull alongside w/o ramming you? She was knockin' into everybody 2 years ago. Didn't see her this or last year after she got complaints all around.[tongue]

It was quite windy so I have to give her the benefit of the doubt but she did bump us pretty good.

Windy or not, that rooky's a water hazard.[grin] She triple rammed us 2 years back and we were up a creek out of the wind.

Regular stalker, too. Waits 'til you're just finishing up, then measures every stinkin' crab down to the frog hair. You must be one charmin' SOB to get off w/ a warnin'.[tongue]

Hah my wife doesn't think so[grin].We had the males and females separated and she just wanted to see them.We weren't keeping anything borderline.She did get upset with my brother though.She told us to keep crabbing while she wrote the warning and when she was pulling back up to us he threw out a trap right in front of her.[tongue]She had to back up and pull around.
