So I have a long weekend and reports are coming in thick and fast about how a certain stretch of water that connects Buzzards Bay to Cape Cod Bay is alive with fish, and big fish at that. Normally I would have been all over that situation but for some reason, I don't really care. Didn't fish for bass at all all weekend and could care less.

Can it really get boring after a while? I mean year after year beating yourself to death to catch a striped bass? Can you reach a point where you have done it so long, where it has dominated your life in so many ways that finally it just isn't that exciting anymore?

I live 20 minutes from the canal, on Cape Cod. My God! What's happening to me?

I had to push myself to get the skiff ready this year, finally did that on Saturday, I go on two weeks vacation this friday, and I am not that excited about it. Man, I never thought I could ever feel this way.

Very strange, my wife is worried that I have a girl friend or something, no no girlfriend just not enthused as I normally am.

ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
