Flotsam and Jetsam - Better Late Than Never DIY

I was just about ready to start the morning post when I got a text from Pete, who needed someone to drive him home from the Solomon, where he was dropping off his boat for a new motor (after 4,000 hours), and needed to leave his truck there, so we could drive a borrowed boat around from Flag Harbor to Solomons for him to use in the meantime. We fished a bit on the way around. It wasn't on fire, but we caught two nice Bluefish, (one of which just provided dinner), and an over-slot rockfish. So, this post is late and DIY. Sorry, not sorry.
