What Slingah said! (My S-B "handle," after all!). It was a Bass convention then the likes of which I haven't seen from shore since! Oh, and it wasn't one such night as he describes for me: I'd say I had half- a- dozen such nights that Fall there! :humpty:

But that would be 1st choice of my own experiences to return to... To go back to any place & time? I'd say next to Dennis during "Snowstorm Blitz" too because I love that Porkchop so much!!... but it really seems that action then was mostly at one specific spot, that really is unpleasant to fish with more than 3-4 guys! According to Dennis there were usually 20- 30 guys there during the blitz all crazed & casting...

So: give me the Cape that early Nov. when Tony S. took Bertha!-- & Steve Kearney from L.I. had a mid- 60's & mid- 50's within 3 days... as a 16 yr. old! :beat:

All that bait & fish... and a "hotspot" of sand stretching for miles! Was plenty of room back then & no "mugging" I'm sure! And those 60's are SO much easier to best & release with feet planted on sand... as opposed to rocks & cobble bar! :bc:

I'd go back to 1955 and see George McFly and punch out Biff!!!

Night Strikes
 

I would have liked to watch Albert reel that fish in too.

The last week in Sept. "98" on the back side, the whole week was great till a strong cold front came through and ended it. Fish every night, all night long 25-40 lbs. Fished just two beaches, eels and plugs. That was a great week, have not seen anything close to that week, before or after. At times it was like feeding worms to bluegills off the dock, except this time it was bass and eels.

Yep, and wetting a line myself in that mess... It sounded like plenty of other big bass were feeding aswell and including close to state record size weakfish in the mix..

Pochet , November 3 , 1981.

i would like to fish the bass stands at beavertail when fishing there was at its prime...

I'd like to go to pre-European Cape Cod with todays gear and some spare stuff to trade. I'd love to see the place without a single trophy home. And fish that have never been cast to...

oh my god...I cant imagine 6 nites of it...it was MAGIC...I'll bet you are the guy that was coming off when we got there......

PM sent Slingah...

When you pull on 50+ Bass from 12- 34 lbs. from before Midnight to 4 AM straight... you don't need to fish through the Dawn! :hihi: :smokin: :cheers: :as:

Late 70's early 80's BI

[QUOTE=BigFish;476530]Late 50's/early 60's......running the backside beaches in a 1948 Woody wagon with the likes of Frank Woolner, Arnold Laine, Ralph Gray, Stan Gibbs, Charlie Murat.......the list goes on and on!:rolleyes:

My uncle Paul fished with Stab Gibbs quite a bit back then!
He was up for a wake & funeral a few months ago, he shared some great stories with me!

I'm in :spidey:

2,000 years ago to either the Great South Bay or the Elizabeth Islands. And I'd stay there too.

Id rather go forward in time 6 thousand years and fish with the gear they would have then :smokin:
