I guess the highlight of the year fishing wise was a pretty nice bass I caught right in the middle of a crowd this spring and released while everyone else was killing their better fish.Made me feel good knowing that fish lived, probably would have been a goner if someone else caught it.I hope it's still swimmin around out there somewhere.
Otherwise a pretty unexceptional year fishing wise.
Getting to know some of you cape guys and fishing at nauset(nice beach),that wasn't a bad thing and I did get to ride in BM's sand sled.Matter a fact I think I was the last person to ride shotgun before it met it's untimely demise.bang bang bang%(&$##^T&)^# GET OUTA MY WAY!freakin dopey tourists &^)($%$#@!#!!! Haw Haw Haw, lot's of fun.
Had lots of fun making lures and swapping with other guys too or just givin them away(Where's my Darters! and where'd my needlefish go?)
Fishing down here is pretty bad anymore.Too many people,gill netters working in the close to the beaches and pollution are doin a real number on the fishing down here.Couple more years of this and there really will be no fish here at all.
These guys down here I don't think even know how bad the water quality is.They been lookin at it so long they don't know water is supposed to be clear and not smell bad.Nor are beaches supposed to resemble land fills.There's places I fished in NJ this year where I was afraid to touch my line after it was in the water.I'm not kidding either.
I guess that's what they call "progress".
So,Any of youse guys got a big bass yet up there?
Is any one even trying?I'm tellin you there's more fish still to come.Everything is late this year and you guys are gonna get decent fishing right up til Thanksgiving I think.Last year there were some big bass caught right about now up that way so if I lived up there I would still be out tryin.
