Fisherwoman · 05-14-2003, 10:44 AM

Hey FW, we slayed them last night and the same couple was there enjoying it with myself and friend Pete. It was intense from about 6:30 until I was whipped at 8:30, non stop blues from 8-12 lbs. It was commical at times with 4 of us lined up and all trying to figure out what to do with 4 hookups at the same time. I'd go down again tonight, but I think I better have diner and see the family for a night

Nice to see you getting in to some fish over there hope it all goes well for the rest of the summer

schoolie monster · 05-15-2003, 11:17 AM

FW, you know how your season is kinda broken down into several events... events that kinda benchmark your season.

Early season schoolies at the cape, then the blues, then you settle into your grove up here in boston harbor... finally, wrap things up in MV... for me, its Nantucket.

Hitting those blues is probably my favorite "one time" event for its unmatched savage topwater action. Bass are my favorite, but this is something a little different that I look forward to each year. Your out there isolated on the flat, gettin' soaked, gettin' beat up by the fish... its just awesome.

I only need to do it once, but I need to do it...

Man, I'm gonna miss it this year. Goin' away this weekend and in general, have pretty limited flexibility during the week, so its just not gonna happen.

I'm not whining 'cause this weekend has some other potential for me (to be eloborated on later), and I'll get plenty of fishing in, but it just tweaks the stomach a bit.

GS, I even got a new rain top and wader belt to keep myself from a situation like last year. 50 degree water over the back every few waves.

Congrate Fisherwoman & B.C. on finding all those Blue's down on the Cape. I am jealous! Are you fishing down there at the end of the month?

BigFish · 05-15-2003, 03:17 PM

Hey, Fisherwoman and Caitcaster, nice article in the
Ledger. Just wanted to let you know that I saw you.

BigFish · 05-15-2003, 03:18 PM

Sorry Baitcaster, I hit the "C" by mistake. What an IDIOT,

I feel so stupid.
