WOW, this is a GREAT thread.
Firstly, Flaptail you nearly made me cry. God is generous my friend, share your gift with as many who will listen.
Shortly after my father died. I had a dream that I was drifting on the south side of Block Island and the water was as clean as it gets and very calm. Suddenly my dad drifted down from heaven and sat beside me in the boat. He said look at all the beautiful fish. I looked around the boat and there were fish of every species. Dolfins were jumping and sharks were gliding along and it was like being at the aquarium. than I looked back toward my dad and he was gone. I felt such peace after that dream.
Anyway, I'm gonna make you guys mad but my dream isn't a striper. I'm happy with my 40 pounders. I'd love to catch busting school tuna on a popper. I know they do it down south. I'd love to hook into a 50 pound yellowfin on a spinning set up with one of my own poppers. That would be a thrill.
Saving what we can for the future of all children is a goal. Working with other fishermen to make the way for our children to have what we do.
