Hello again from the independence. Yesterday we departed on the annual 12-day cow shoot out. We are heavily armed with live bait, and everyone on board is in high spirits. Today was spent talking about giant tuna, as well as rigging up properly for these beasts. Aside from that, most watched football, and told fish stories. The weather is absolutely gorgeous, and looks to stay good for a while. We have high hopes for the trip, and look forward to doing battle in the next few days. Thanks for checking in on us, Jeff and the Indy crew
