I spent an entire week fishing Race Point (and area) HARD! Used fresh sandeels (raked by my own poor hands) and nada! No bait in the water, no fish, no nothin! Fished 3 good solid SW and NW blows (usually good) and nothing but crabs eating the bait.

I'd like to blame it on the seals. I'd like to blame it on inflation or the war in Iraq. But I'm at a lose. I've fished there for many years and never seen such sterile water.

Whats the deal!

	Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
