Yep, Rip is still around, as I said he's busy with life and being a Dad...although he does check in here from time to time....
Sometimes fishing can get in the way of that, and so far Rip has been on the straight and narrow, doing the things he needs to do to provide for his family...
Talked to him the other day, he's still the same grouchy basstid as he always was..
,,.the commentary coming from him, made me think I was talking to another
Finchaser in the makiing.
.....real, in-your-face, and not holding back....
