Thumbs up to Monomoy!!! Now do state regulations REQUIRE a fly-rod or would you just get shot without one?

Hey John,

I have this plan for Monomoy! How about one of those 10-12 foot inflatables? We could crash Monomoy like a group of Navy Seals. I think they are only a couple of grand.

My uncle has an 10' achilles, maybe I could get him to let me keep it up here... I know he never uses it.

What do ya think?

You got it!!! All legal ramifications aside (I don't think they want you there at night) I'm game...

Did you ever read that two part story a couple years ago in ONTHEWATER ? It talked about three guys going out in a little putt-putt (like yours :P ) and fishin' Monomoy all night? Apparently the fishing is not quite what it was before both the decline of the fishery and that little storm that blew out half of Chatham... Anyway - the story talks about big fishi blitzes that we only dream about... Damn, I wish I had been there. Now I'll be in a foul mood for the rest of the day...

So when are you, the wife, and your dear little child going to come over to my wife?

I'm not sure I understand the question... could you clarify what you mean? :)

The last couple weeks and next couple of weeks have been and will be nuts. We're doing all the mudding, taping, and sanding in the addition, and will be putting down the linoleum(sp?) floors, as well as tiling the bathroom. We're really pushing to get done ASAP. Plus, Karen is going to do a bit of work for the DMR on weekends for a couple of months. I remember thinking at this time last year that things would be alot calmer by now, but there always seems to be something going on.

But certainly after your bundle of joy arrives we'll visit. I'm sure I'll see ya at the hospital upon delivery of the goods. Soon John, you gonna be a papa really soon!

Unreal, isn't it?

We'll talk to ya soon.
