Went out to the Block with Clammer last week. although the bite was not on at all. We had a good time. I was able to discover what Clammer means by up close and tight. We were slinging eels under the North East Light house. Clammer suggest we go righ into the middle of a boulder field. Off we go I hook-up one my fist cast and while wacthing the line spool and waiting to set the hook. I decide I have waited long enough as current has pushed the boat about 3 feet from breaking surf over this boulder. So I close the bail reel and gun it out of the way and of course the striper is long gone. Clammer looks at me and says that Surfrunner would have got a few dings but the fish would have been in the boat. Now that is hard core!!!!
