The Insufishent Funds fishing team has been wanting to find a way to donate our time, talent and knowledge for a good cause. We found our opportunity with the Make a Wish Foundation. I contacted the make a wish foundation and six months later they told me about a 17 year old boy whose wish was to catch a shark. Patrick and his family flew from Kentucky to Florida to meet us in attempts to catch a shark. We started our day by jigging some of the local wrecks for bait. On the boat to help me with the wish was Cole Svenson from CheapShot and Rob Pami from the Insuffishent Funds fishing team. We immediately started to catch AJ's and they were the biggest fish Patrick's mother and brothers had ever caught and after two or three of them they were worked. Patrick didnt want to catch bait he wanted to wait for the sharks. After making bait we went on the hunt for the big guy and three hours passed without a bite. Finally we were hooked up and Patrick was smiling from ear to ear. Patrick battled a Bull shark for 45 minutes without quiting before we got him up to the surface. With all the work that went into this trip it was very emotional for all of us and it was even more rewarding than winning a tournament. We unhooked the shark and gave Patrick the hook as his trophy. His smiles made it all worthwhile..............
