Sweetwater, Glad to hear youre getting some time in on the water, the Fluke should be filling the sound about now, thats what I'm missing the most right now. I just got a nice set of rod riggers from ebay and the boat was ready to rock.I had fired it up in the yard, serviced the bearings on the trailer...Now I wish I never started it up and burned off the fogging oil. Doesn't look like I'll be fishing for months by the time the shoulder comes out of the sling it'll need alot of rehab.

I'm just hoping to salvage the fall run at this point. Keep the reports coming, I won't feel bad- it's the onlything fishing related I can do for now, enjoying it vicariously. I can type, but can't move my upper arm away from my torso for at least a week, or lift anything heavier than a soda can- which even precludes tying flies!!! have you tried any shad fishing since the big rains? Tight Lines, And Say Hello to Chuckles and Pag for me, Jim
