Last 2 weeks have sucked. Can't put it any other way. 2 weeks ago my father had a stroke. Came out of that with no paralysis but just couldn't get better. The more tests they ran the more the truth was revealed. Cancer thru out his liver, kidneys and 1 lung. He passed on Tuesday may 9th. My parents were married 50 years. After helping my mom get things in order, my wife told to "go out". Friday morning found me along the Delaware. Decided to take my ultralight outfit. 4'8" St Croix loaded with 4lb test. Had caught a few smallies up to 12" when my line came tight. Knew right away it wasnt a smallie. It stayed deep. Occasional head shake. After a couple short runs it just hugged the bottom. Knew it was either a channel cat or a walleye, was pleasently surprised to see Mr walleye. Pulled the tape to 21". I'd like to think Dad helped me with this one. Thanks Dad.
