Hey Clamdigger??

I was unaware that you know joe flip!

Now im interested to know if we know each other?? I have been inseprable from joe for the last ten some odd years!! As soon as he no longer fished with ray (former owner of ericksons) we started to fish together.We really clicked as a team and both of us had the same enthusiasm and love for striper fishing.Joe and I fished 7 nights a week no matter what and it was very,very rare that we would ever get skunked.We spent some quality time out on block island and did a job there more than once.

We never fished the bay and that could be one of the reasons why you dont ring a bell with me.We concentrated in narragansett and the south shore around westerly.

The problem for me and joe was two fold,He was getting older and losing the drive to fish everynight for 6 hours and I was all gung ho,then I decided to get married and I had a child ands oh well, you get the picture.Joe and I still talk at least two times a day every day and Im very close to his family and wife cheryl.

We are fortunate that our friendship is much deeper than just fishing.I would do anything for joe,He is one of the nicest guys I have ever met and will do anything for just about anyone in need.Joe is one of those friends that only comes once in a lifetime,and those are the friends you keep.

Anyway Im curious to know who you are.Im sure joe has mentioned you to me in the past.I know all about the stories from his mako days!! Even today he struck up a friendship with an old friend Lou Storti.Im sure you know him.They now fish together every once in a while,Not hardcore but fluke and bass etc...

Joe got turned off to boat fishing when his boat partner peter lockwood was killed off block island in a freak accident.

Anyway,Shoot me an email and reveil yourself!!
