Yeah Piemma I know the club... Sounds like a great bunch of guys who are members, and the location of the clubhouse is to die for! I'm a member of the narragansett pier club and guess where we have our meetings???? West Marine....
talk about slumming it.
Still.... what a way to go... I dont know what it is about jerry, but somehow I idolize him. Often I'll wonder what he would think about how we fish today and if he would aprove or disaprove of how we are managing our fisheries..
Then I think about how huge the bass were then and how plentiful it was in his day and I cant help but feel shafted by all the guys who over fished the stocks back in the 80's..... Will we ever experience fishing like it was in the 40's and 50's?? I'm leaning to say no because of the lacking of the bait fish that are missing these days like an abundance of adult menhaden...
I guess time will tell and if I'm lucky I'll slip away quietly with a big bass on the end of my line too
