Van,
Will do, it's going to be a beautiful night so I'll be out there again, if anyone wants to give it a try I'll be monitoring 69, and fishing from Nebraska Shoal to the PJ Light area....

Made some calls monday am to see if anybody wanted in on the fluke action. No replies. Sooner or later will get some communications going. Anybody else fish Monday mornings?

is everyone monitoring channel 69?

Don't get discouraged, I think folks are right... it will take a while for people to get in the habit of turnin' their radios on. I know I have all kinds of plans and strategies and ideas, but when I find that first flock of terns divin', I forget about everythiing and it all goes out the window.

I get so locked in sometimes, I forgot to try different colors, sizes, lures... 179's got the idea. Make us all aware of all the fish we might have caught had we been listening.

Anyway, myself, I wasn't on the water over the weekend... :mad: and I'm a very bitter man about it.

Folks.....finally back from 3 weeks in Atlanta, and can;t wait to thit the waters tomorrow morning....either PJ or Cape.....will monitor 69 and use the hail "SB, SB, SB".....looking to hear form my friends.....I fish off the "Saucey".....19' Whaler.

Homerun:

Gonna be horrible out there tomorrow..:af: :(
NE wind to 20 mph and rain makes for a crappy day.

I'll check it out in the am, but if its fierce I'm going back to bed!

Stay home and catch up on some chores maybe, make the misses happy. ;)

channel 69
 

i was out by butlers flats sunday morning murdering the fluke! i tried channel 69 to see if anyone else wanted to get some nice doormats. there wasn't much of a drift, but a few bounces off the bottom and my rod tip was dancing......... largest one i landed was 27 1/2" in length.

reel deal: where is butler flats? I was out sunday and thought I might have heard something but it was broken up, i must have been too far away. I was around Pt. Judith, Charlestown beach, and Green Hill, and there wasn't too much happening. Congrats on the good fortune, glad to hear someone was catchin them.

Lou

hey lou......
butlers flats is out by fairhaven, ma. went back out there yesterday, and i couldn't get away from all the sand sharks. by sunset i was surrounded by blues crashing the surface. i tried channel 69 and got no responses.......oh well

I finally decided on a name for my boat, it's "OFF-DUTY"

It's a white 19ft Mako center console with a Honda 130, black bow dodger, no T-top yet. See you guys out there and good luck.

btw, went out this morning and the fishing was slow, why are the bass so scattered?

:D

Mako:
I think because the bait scattered the bass are not concentrated.
last year at this time and later we were still getting macks and catching bass everywhere.

We had some luck at point allerton this weekend.
Where were you fishing?

I also decided on a name for my boat.

Again, its a 17' logic with a honda 50hp and bowmount riptide trolling motor. Vessel name will be "Cross Rip" in honor of my grandfather who passed away in January.

He had two sailboats bearing that name. He was inducted into the Collegiate Sailing Hall of Fame and also won several Lipton Cup races to Bermuda. He raced against JFK in college when he was at MIT and JFK was at Harvard. He was a great navigator long before the days of GPS, etc. I plan on exploring his career alot more 'cause unfortunately, everything I know is pretty much second hand as he was fighting Alzheimer's for a long time. He attended my high school graduation (almost 15 yrs ago), but by the time I finished college, he didn't know who I was (no, I only had to go one extra semester). Wish I could've spent time on the water with him... I could have learned alot.

Anyways, you can add the "Cross Rip" to the list.

To avoid confusion for all you folks put there.....

....my SB board name is Homerun04.....
my boat name is Saucey....

So.....if you are hailing the Saucey out on the open blue waters of RI or MA, you are talking to Homerun04 on this board.....

Hope that helps.

is there a list of everyone's boat name and s-b member that we can print out?
