Hey Pat, I'm glad you are "seeing" some fish again after the eye surgeon ambushed you! Thanks for another fun report and pictures. I'm also glad that you recovered you fins. It was a really  encounter with a knucklehead.

Thanks Jim.  Eye is recovering...but still not back to "normal".  But at least I have some peripheral vision and better depth perception.  Hope for the future.  

Those who know me from my younger years would  be surprised that I did not react in a more forceful or physical way.  I'm a big guy and have always been athletic...including combat training, etc.  But as my hero Dirty Harry says, "A man should know his limitations."  My aging body reminds me of my limitations every day, so I have mellowed out a lot.  In years past I have narrowly avoided assault charges for physically "reacting" to boater transgressions.  These days I have neither the strength or stamina to take on the (usually) younger aggravations.  Also, in our wacko world today you never know who is "carrying" and how eager they are to "bag a big old buck".  I'd rather remain a disgruntled old codger than to become a late night news item.  

Heck, I don't even remember even being gruntled.  But then there's a lot I don't remember.
