    I'm Pulling a Springer!!! Tampa Bay Bound!

    Well, it looks as though I am moving away from the area. I am 34 years old, and haved lived on the Eastern Shore my entire life. But, a great opportunity has come along, and I was offered a position with one of the best Search Engine Optimization companies in the country.

    I will of course be monitoring the forum everyday, and will be visiting GSPP very often throughout next year. This year of fishing has been the best experience of my life! I met some great people and got to be part of a great group of fisherman, and I wouldnt trade the experience for anything in the World. My son is now hooked on fishing for life, and he basically learned how to fish with all of you guys.

    I will be on the rock Sat. morning, and it might be my last cig snobbled this year. I hope to see some of you guys there.

    P.S. Looks like I am gonna be killing the Tarpon and Snook. Also, gotta show some of these Tampa Bay area piers what snobbling is, since they fish differently. I am taking GSPP to Tampa - showin them how we roll up here.

    P.S.S. One thing I did was take a picture that I took earlier this year. It was a picture of the oci, empty. For some reason, that picture came oout huge! I dont know why the size was like that. But, it made the perfect desktop background. I made it my laptop background and new work cdesktop background. Now, no matter where I am, I am always on the octi with the rest of you guys. Here is the pic http://www.gulfshorespierfishing.com...?sa=view;pic=3

    Gonna miss ya Bubba - been a lot of fun fishing with you this summer/fall. Thanks so much for your contributions to this site - I think I speak for all of us 300 or so 'posting' members and the thousands of 'non-posting' members and guests who drop in on this site at least daily.........Stay in touch - it's only an 8 hour drive from Tampa..........Take Care - Steve (Slim) Langston

    God's speed Bubba!
    Best in all this new opportunity offers for you and your family. :headbang:

    I guess we'll have to add an "out of area fishing reports" to the forum ;-) LOL!

    You will be sorely missed Bubba. Thanks for everything. Down there you will also be in Goliath grouper territory. Now there is a fight! Good luck to you!

    Ah, sad to see you go, Bubba. It was nice having another Auburn fan out there haha. Good luck in south Florida... and make sure you post pictures of the fish you tangle with down there!
