Thanks,

Yeah the Cuttyhunk Open is the annual competition with the Connecticut Surfcasters Association, the Cuttyhunk Rod & Gun Club, and anyone else who shows up... It really is every man for himself though. The clubs do like the bragging rights of course...

The 2003 Open (7th Annual) is tentatively set for September 26-27th. 5pm to 5pm (as always with an awards cookout afterwards). Love to see S-B representing...

:drool:

OK - who wants to take these guys & gals on :hihi:

I think you guys were there the week after us last year for your Tourney. We were there weekend of June 15th.

We were also there the first or second weekend (I forget which) of September 2002...

It has been in the Fall the past two years. It originally (first four years) was in June. Last years fishing (see video) was the best yet. In fact, Saturday morning at dawn on October 5th was possible the greatest two hour of shore fishing I've seen on Cuttyhunk in many years...huge bass on poppers in a 25 knot smokey sou'wester... Awesome!

I'm in. :D

Cuttyhunter I am in for the fall derby as a S-B member Bill if you wish you can ride with me!!! May have to put a tent up on the hill side land this year as the house may be GONE:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :eek: :eek:

GB - I'm with you. I'll be dusting off my tent too... And if I'm REALLY lucky, I'll have a boat to take over - so I can SURF FISH :D ...

Funny thing is, I was talking to Tattoo a couple months ago and he was suprised when I said I'd but a boat and one of the things I would do is use it to get to Cutty to surfcast :p

John you are right there is somthing magical about sufcasting on Cuttyhunk I have done it since I was young and still like to fish shore when I am there:confused:

:laughs: :laughs: :laughs: :laughs:

Dang those Connecticut Surfcasters are going to be in trouble. Looks like we got ourselves a team.

I may not be good but Im willing ! Did someone say camping on the hunk ? I hope it doesnt rain too hard .

think i'll bring pizza this time.. the pizza man never delivers

jeez!!!
 

you guys are in sept allready and i havnt even planned spring yet!!! how far is cuttyhunk from cape and is there any ramps were you can leave truck and trailer overnight allweekend down near cape then on cutty can you put boat up on beach or is there somewhere to tie up id be willing to take pepole over if conditions are right

Pizza pizza , get your red hot pizza . How do you take your Red ? how about a white clammmer pie ?

OK - after all of the requests, here is Cuttyhunter's video (thanks dude!):

Cutty Tournament

And an amazing note: look at the weight of the largest bluefish and tell me that wasn't a fight!

Let me know if there's still room!

I'd like to cut my teeth at Cutty!...

Great little video...looks like it was fun...I gotta get to Cutty:bo:

JohnR,

That bluefish was length not weight. All fish compete based on length not weight because it's difficult to carry fish around on the 'hunk since most everyone is on foot. A lot of people like to catch and release and not everyone has a scale handy. I should also mention that it is all beach fishing - no boats. I've attached last year's flyer so you can get a sense of the rules.

2002 Flyer:

John, U cant goto Cuttyhunk without your cousin Dave from NJ bro:D . I wanna go reaaalllllly bad:laughs:

Hey Cuttyhunker.....
 

I wish I was there that morning you rocked those fish. But Rich R dragged me out on an all nighter. I am not complaining I got a 41" fish and Rich got a 40". I would have given my left nugget to see what you guys did that same morning we were just coming back and hitting the sack. Right place, right time epidemic again! One of these days I am going to hit it just right! To all the SB folk here if you guys enter and you do better then the CT Surfcasters can I jump ship and come to your side? :D Seeing as I am a long time member here lol. I can tell I am getting old, my back took at least 2 days to get back to normal. Hey Cuttyhunker when you going to make me some nice sidewalks to and from the bass stands????!!!!! At least give us a golf cart 4x4 permit :)

JohnS

Sorry Cutty - I think in pounds :D

Dave - no relatives in Jersey, but hey - you're a vet, that's worth some slack ;)

JohnS - Sure you're not going to feed info back to the other side(s)?

Damn I love that place! Even has easy & productive spots for fat guys like me :D http://www.striped-bass.com/images/c...eesisters1.jpg

Gentlemen - I'm seeing a challenge mounting here :kewl:

add one for most fish///////////////////////////

I'll sell my soul to the devil to fish over there, contest or no contest.

Mike, I borrowed your picture.

:happy: aaaaaaaaw yeah baby

ahhhhh yes

:smash: :smash: :smash: :smash: :smash: :smash:


Stop please stop it's too far away to be talking about it now.
Now I will be dreaming about Cutty every night till we get back there.:(

I hope I can make it this year, just need to get a house sold, relocate, move, yeah it will happen:(.

GS - move south, not north :D

Ok heres the plan for 2003. The house has been sold so we will need to clear the land up on the hill to pitch a tent just to stay out of the rain . I am thinking of going over in May for a weekend to clear a spot on the land, if anyone would like to go I would love the company. I think we can then do a June derby as we did last year and another in Sept. and then the Ct. challenge in Oct. if thats when they are going if its ok with them for us to join in the fun. I am looking at a new tent that will sleep 12 and should have it by then. We will also have a golf cart or a quad for our use for the old timers. Goose one good thing the land up on the hill has a path that leads right to that point of rocks:D :D I hope we can still use the Nor-Easter shuttle but I hear he is looking at changing boats so we will have to see. But Donna Hunters son runs a shuttle at the time you want and would be about the same price if need be. The Fri night over and Sunday morn. return worked good what do you think? I have talked to her about it already and was told it would be no problem if need be. So we will wait to hear from Chet and go from there. I have a list of those that asked last fall to go agian and would not tell anyone they could not join in but would need to keep it to 10-12 like last year if possible. I found that to be a good and manageable number.

IN :D - Depending on when in May, I can likely come over & help - depends on the wife's work schedule as she does one day on weekend :(

John I was planning on getting you and Clammer over more this season. I think I have worked out another pole in the harbor for the season for use by any S-B member that would need to use so long as I got a few days notice so as not to have more that two show up at a time. I would like to see if we can find someone with a dingy that they might like to donate to the cause that could be left on the new pole so no one would need to take one over each time.

I have dingy :D I'll ask my friend if we can use it.

8'-5" kinda beat.

Greg if I can help in May, I'll try.

GB,

In 99% sure that the 2003 Cuttyhunk Open will be the last weekend in September. As a representative of the Cuttyhunk Rod & Gun Club, I (Slater Anderson) organize it with Rich Russo from the CSA. Any S-B guys are welcome to participate as is any one on the island at that time. The Open begins at 5pm on Friday night, so you guys will need to get there sometime before that to take full advantage of the 24 hours.

John Paul Hunter (Donna's son - as you probably know) is a good friend of mine and I use his water taxi services regularly. He can carry up to 16 people and it cost $18 a head each way last year.

I'm curious what house you're talking about that got sold on the island? Sarmento?
