A couple of years later...3 of us were running wide open in a 14' alum boat w/ 20hp Mercury on our way duck hunting before daylight. I was seated up front with the lantern and two buddies were side by side in the back. A mullet jumps and nails me square in the middle of my chest. One buddy in the back busted out laughing and about that time another mullet jumps and slaps him right in the mouth.... we laughed close to tears.


...when in doubt...set the hook...
