Did my annual north shore striper trip around south end of P.I. Trolled
plugs, drifted mack chunks and clams, picked up two or three schoolies
with my buddy. Dunno folks, it ain't what it used to be a while ago.
As John Milner says in American Graffiti.
"The pickins are really gettin' slim. The whole strip is shrinking. Ah,
you know, I remember five years ago it would take you a couple of hours,
and a tank full of gas to make one circuit. It was really somethin'."
Maybe I was just a little late (a guy I met on the way in had picked up
a couple of keepers the week before on a T and W), but it's been years
since I've caught anything good in the fall. Is there a fall run anymore?
Is anyone getting anything worth bothering with in the fall? It sho' ain't me.
