Im done!!!!!!!
Heard tommorow its going to blow a gale again,Norwest! Terrible! After much debate I have decided to call it quits for big bass,I may still bend the rod for the occasional schoolie but, night time fishing is done for me.
Its been a long season and I have fished an average of 5 days per week since the end of march!! I have had enough,to much to do around the homestead and I just dont have a good "gut" feeling about the nighttime action,There has just been to much time lost to incleament weather and bad timing.The blow this week really hurt us bigtime.Last year the brutes were all but gone on the the mainland of rhode island by november 10th and that was with good conditions.Looks like this year its a week sooner and, yes , that does happen some years.
To echo sandmans statement,I have freinds at the Island this week who wish they were home from what I have heard,I got a call from one of them today who said the island is almost unfishable and not worth the trip out,I almost went there for the week!! Good thing I had a change of heart in sept.I would have been stuck out there!!!
I would say to stick to daytime action now and take what the fish gods give you,small fish.
I just talked to joe flip who said his buddies were killing the fish (from boat) between the subbouy and montauk,fish up to 47lbs again, bad news,those fish aint coming back.
In the imortal words of the sandman."Im cleaning out the truck"!! Those are sad words!! but true im afraid,I will wait to catch schoolies in the spring,Its just to raw to catch 18inch fish now!!
For those of you still giving it hell,Good luck and god speed!!!!
