Beetle - Nice seeing you again last night after ....about 35 yrs. Glad to see you retained your dad's boat name "YNOT". Always liked the name although it's not quite as "creative" as Sokinwet. At any rate, I know that both names go back in lineage to a couple of old tin boats and tin boat fisherman! When I think back to some of the places we went (Cuttyhunk, the Hole, Quick's) and the weather we went through in those tin boats it makes me wonder how we're still here! Today DSS would be locking you up if you dragged your kid out to Pigs & Sows in a 14' starcraft when the rip was running 6'! and it's blowing sw. My dad is still fishing every chance he can but his eyesight is slowing him down a little. I guess he's one of the last few of that MSBA generation (Harry, Red, the Cooses, Benny C, Bill Nolan, Doc Wall, etc.) that's still with us. He's still wants that 50+ that's eluded him for the past 82 yrs. Harbor has been slow for me that last few trips; scratched a few last night jigging DEEP but all the usual spots were "0" I'm usually "listening" on 69 and out a few times ea. week. Give me a shout if you're out. John P
