Found this plug at the race on the last week of june. It was just floating along crying for a home. Wonder who lost it. It had a chunk of leader or line and a bent siwash hook.

Now BM you cannot claim this one, It's not a needle!

I lost a big yellow plug at RP then, but not that one! Lost a couple more that day, too.

Hi l.i.fish,in.vt,

I believe I met you on the race a while ago..Was with BF And Afterhours on a windy day...

Karl F · 07-28-2005, 08:14 PM

Well Don, ya found Slips lost popper, with the bent hook... did ya find what bent the hook?, I think that's what Slip is really crying about... If you find a red-headed yellow KF popper at nauset, please let me know, however, I doubt you will find it, it was headed towards Portugal at warp 8 the last I saw of it, with most of my leader attached to it

Slip, LI... I feel your pain.

Nebe · 07-28-2005, 08:35 PM

hmm sounds like there are fish at race point

gone fishin · 07-28-2005, 08:35 PM

well Slip -- sounds like this one is yours. I'll try to keep it comfy til I see you again. That is if somethin doesn't eat it again. Just proves the plug is a goodie. The hook was well bent. maybe you hooked one of the horseheads out there.

Karl - I know that feeling! Sort of makes you weep, especially if you saw the monster before it broke off.

Slipknot · 07-28-2005, 08:50 PM

It looks like one I lost but I don't paint the eyes like that. Bassmaster is wrong.
maybe it was a local guys' plug.

I've lost so many plugs I

everytime

A horsehead will do that to the hook, I saw 2 guys get spooled one day, one at sunrise and the other at sunset. I'll get out the gorilla gear when those things are arond fron now on.

well maybe one day i will make a pilgramage out to the cape, but until then i will stay here in RI.. Most guys who know me, know i fish a stretch of coatline that is 10 miles long- thats it. Theres always fish here, so why should I leave

i havnet fished in a week, and cant for another week

Flaptail · 07-31-2005, 07:30 PM

E that sucks but I understand what your up against. I had two two years apart and did not fish for weeks on end when they were little. No babysitters or daycare. Wife and I would have none of that, one of us was always with them. She went out the door to work when I came in and vice-a versa. It sucked but I think the kids are better for our sacrifices. ( It didn't help when my buddies came by to show me fish)

Kudos to you

for being a good Dad.

Nebe · 07-31-2005, 09:24 PM

Flap yoru right, its so hard. Add to that running a glass studio and maintaining a house.. phew i dont know how people do it with more than one little rug rat.
The bass will always be there for me and hopefully they will be around for my grand kids to enjoy too

well here he is a few days ago. happy as a clam as always

Great pic Eben.

Looks like he is ready to say " daddy, you aren't going fishing again are you? "

Backbeach Jake · 08-01-2005, 05:32 PM

Eben, That happy little boy plus the fact that you even notice, speaks volumns about the great Dad that you are. Get him a rod.

gone fishin · 08-02-2005, 08:47 PM

Eben that is one handsome rug crab!! Don't fret the fish will wait and soon you will have the privelage and enjoyment teaching a son to fish!! Been there and done that!

Squid kids Dad · 08-02-2005, 09:18 PM

Thata just mean.
I liked it.

l.i.fish.in.vt · 08-03-2005, 06:32 PM

the trick with kids is to get them conditioned to say ""daddy i want to go fishing", then you have no excuse to go.the look on their face when they catch their first snapper or what ever will last a life time.
