Entertainment on the beach, and Victory

[Slipknot]

This weekend I went camping down the cape with my 2 brothers,their 2 sons and my son. The 3 boys are close in age 1 year apart and I like to take them out fishing if I have the chance . So we all pile into my pickup and head to the beach and drive and drive and drive some more till we get past the seemingly endless mung Finally we see it clearing a little and it looks fishable, other surfcasters are lining the beach and I see an opening and happen to pull up next to Rappin Mikey He is with his bud who is a striper virgin fisherman and popped his cherry with his first keeper before we arrived. So everyone is soaking sandeels and Mikey's bud is getting all the fish it seems. He set me up with some bait a a sinker so I set out a rod and plugged a popper too. It was about 5-5:30 in the afternoon and Mikey starts to get some fish too. Well he lands a few but the next one gets the attention of one of the marauding seals torturing us out there and he pops his head up with a 30 something inch bass dangling out of his mouth by the tail as if to show off his prize, at that moment another seal tries to steal the bass from the other seal and you should have seen the explosions in the water from those 2 horsehead seals we all got quite a show. The bass is still hooked so rather than lose his line, Mikey palms the spool and breaks him off. He says that's his 5th bass lost to a seal this year
So he rebaits and sets out again, they each land some fish and in the meantime I am casting poppers off a seals head
Mikey sets up on another fish and he is reeling it in and now a seal is in hot pursuit so the fish zigs and zags and Mikey reels like hell and just gets it away in the nick of time. Success He gets that one away from the seals and the people on the beach start applauding Mikey and cheer for his victory.
I wish I had a video camera.
Good job Mikey !!!
