I'll catch bass any way I can , you know that Steve. But shorefishing is my passion.
I am also getting more and more discouraged by the fishing from shore lately, the closures and seals etc. are pushing us out and it's very sad. After this mornings experience I have decided to start a letter writting campaign to all the polititions I can. I drive all the way to the Race this am knowing there is about a 20 minute window just before sunrise to catch some bass from shore and after getting up after 3 hours sleep I find the trail to the light is closed so I have to go out by the station and it's only open for a few hundred yards for all the SCV and others, so I reluctantly park and walk

I go where I thought I could get some and started fishing and only got a few bluefish hits for my efforts but found Ishould have gone another 500 yards or all the way to hatches because that is where they were for all of 25 minutes and guys dragged their bass all that way back. You have no idea how much I wanted to just drive right out there past the posts and take my chances, I saw no reason whatsoever for it to be closed

maybe I'll drag my skiff out there in that zoo tom. or the next day and tangle with the wireline crew

I HATE MUNG and Plovers

	The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely. 1984 was a warning, not a guidebook! It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
