The Moon
Last night the moon comes up and it was like you turned off the switch. Anyone else notice this?

last night just seemed more abrupt. Maybe because I was a little on the over tired side. |

That's what I mean. I was into fish then got a decent one then 2 more small then just like that the moon came up and NADA. Or maybe it was because a fishing friend of mine showed up. He looked at the one on the rocks and asked when I got it. I told him 15 minutes ago so we figured the game was on. Boy were we wrong  |

That's what I want to know - last night I was fishing out front and a set came through, hit the rocks in front of me and I turned my head away from the spray at the last minute - christmas, it was like somebody shot an enema bag full of saltwater in my ear.
Next set and I get a blast of water that doused my cigarette and went straight up my nose -
Figured at that point it was time to reassess my position  |
"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Fished with Paul an Brian.what a good bunch o guys.hard core indeed.Paul called me at 2:15 AM said meet him at 3:15.at 3:17 i was one mile from him geared up to go an the phone rings.where the hell are ya.Funny stuff.We fished a OTW described spot in beatifull water an got a few small fish.I think the fish get the mag an stay away from them spots.no sense in goin there. |

Tony;
great fishing with you, BTW we saw you sleeping Sat. night when we left spot X but let you sleep... thats where the switch turned off... we'll hook up again when you venture north...
and yes; rule 1 is that if fishing at 3, we get there at 245

LOL, I only have 3 different jig styles, black, white and skin jigs. Only thing that was working was the skin jigs. Wouldn't touch a jig and pork rind. Did do 1 small fish on a NJ style rigged eel. |
