Kelvin's bottom lip is still on the floor!

Kelvin's bottom lip is still on the floor!

Dear Crimpy,

Just when I thought Kelvin was serious about never letting me on the boat with my new pink number, he relented! His reason, I am carrying his daughter and may hold it against him for the rest of his life, or the actual reason blue cod fishing days in the Inner Sounds are numbered. Either way I won so I don't really care what his reason was!

Just to irk him that much more, I purposely dressed for the occasion - pink thermal, pink top, pink undies! We were off! My young son, Jayden, busy telling me all the way to the ramp that, "We don't do pink." ( I've got very good, being like a man and ignoring both him and Kelvin)

After we get to the 'hot spot', the action began with Jayden landing the first whopper of the day and then the pink did it's magic. Very quietly (I made out like I had a spotty hooked) I hauled in the biggest cod I've ever caught. When I asked for a picture with it, Kelvin went to throw the camera over board, not wanting proof it ever happened, but I did convince my dad to take one later in the fishing just to prove to all the skeptics that pink rods do catch fish!

Kelvin's bottom lip is still on the floor!
