Talked to a friend who's one of the principal biologists with DEM yesterday, Mike - I think it's gonna be a while so it is pretty much a history lesson - which isn't a bad thing for future reference, ya know.

Yeah, if the pollock would return and blitz the surf around the island again then we'd really have an act going!

You can still find little guys around Castle Hill most the time but they're about 10" short of keeper size.

	"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
