The weather is too nice , I broke down yesterday after work and walked down to the beach and had to make afew casts . A couple of people thought I was nuts , But they just don't get , it's the stripers , I can hear them calling :laughs: ........ Ok Ok I know I've lost it. :smash:

Your not crazy I am going down to Duxbury this afternoon to "test some plugs"

I hear ya, I wet a line a few weeks ago in my winter jacket. Stopped when my fingers couldn't tie any more. I got some pretty good looks.

that is funny, the only people out on the beach this time of year seem to be dog walkers and obsessive surfcasters. A couple of weeks ago I was walking the beach on PI and I must have seen a friggin' million dogs, don't even get me started on singing beach...

With the weather this week, I am planning a trip for Good Friday.:sled:

You and about a 1000 guys... be prepared for a crowd at all the usual spots...

At least you went to the beach. I was surfcasting big wood and rubber 75 miles up the Merrimack River (beyond 3 dams). I took some new toys out for a swim and got the :hs: look from some guys with ultralite rods looking for trout.

Hopefully going for some holdovers tonight.
First trip of the year for me. I hope I don't need a license.

Only if you get caught.

I looked again, so it isn't!
I thought that the little bend by the head was just how it was placed on the ground, but looking again I see that it is the design of the thing.
