I changed my reservation and am now home. Was supposed to stay until Sunday, but......enough of no fish. Paul, you made a good call not coming over as the weather for those 24-36 hours was tough, to say the least. I would not be surprised if the house gets closed up tomorrow... Just tough fishing long hours, in high winds and or rain, and not seeing many fished weighed in at all. I think three bass were weighed in for both boat and shore divisions on Wednesday! Three! And how many anglers are out there???? Whether the migration is late or not, the fish are not there. Didn't talk to anyone who averaged even one fish a day, not one. I had a great time at the Basic Shack with Patrick, Wendy, Rich. Tom and John C. from MSBA, VineyardBlues, and my roommate Danno, AKA Surfpirate. Also saw last year's winner of the boat, Scotty, however briefly at the house. Spent the afternoon with Swimmer and SKD on the Wasque beach yesterday. I will post some pics tomorrow (after some sleep and finding some fish in my home waters, hopefully...) First time seeing the beachbuggy scene. Very cool way to fish and access lots of ground.
