Cory Martin Cruz, aka "the monk"

I wanted everyone to see Cory, aka "the monk" he is my youngest son. Cory, is a great fisherman, and loves the outdoors. Last, year for his part of summer vacation with me, monk, grumps and I went fishing two nights at Seawolf Park, Galveston, Texas. The monk caught his fair share of sand trout. Cory, is the reason, I have been traveling to North Carolina, all these past months. I know soon monk and I will be reunited again, but I will have to wait for that day to come. I have to tell a funny story, about the monk and I. About 5 years ago, Cory and I went hiking near Kerr Lake, North Carolina, as we were hiking along a creek we came to spot where a ton of carp were schooling in pool in a feeder stream leading into the lake, the monk, got so excited and said, Dad, lets go get the fishing rods and catch some fish, I had to break his heart and let him know, Dad, really does not like to eat carp, but his smile and excitement at the moment will always live in my heart. Grumps and I tried another fishing trip two weeks ago again with no luck, old man winter will not give into the spring, so another bad trip of fishing. We did manage to catch some sun fish but not single crappie or catfish. I will heading to Seawolf park next Saturday night in search of specks, and hopefully a big black drum, the forecast is still to far out for me to say this trip is a go, but I will have another post soon and let everyone know how it progresses. I want to wish every one a Happy Easter and to remember why we celebrate The Easter season.
