"I know where I'd be on MV tonight, tho "

OK tell me. I have been beating a path all around the island and so far the most consistant fishing the last 2 weeks has been on chappy and the fish are all about 15-19 lbs and it is a slow pick at that.

If I had to guess what you are thinking I wouild say squibnocket...but that place (as good as it looks) has been dead slow for nearly 3 weeks. I have not seen one fish taken. Eariler in late sept early oct is was pretty hot for a while. It does look so good though you can't give up on it. The other night while my eel was swimming unmolested thru the bolder field I kept wondering...how can an eel last this long in october in this place?

If you have a hot spot to try...tell me, I will head there tonight. I am in my bathrobe now an it is blowin 28 mph and 38 deg at the moment but it will not take me long to get my long-johns on and slip into my waders. My truck is loaded for bear and ready to go.


I wish they would open great pond....that would draw them in.
The stories I heard of the fishing that occurs when that is open would curl your toes.
