And at times the most frustrating! My back has kept me out of my kayak for months, a couple hours in that seated position and I’m heading to the ramp. So local sea bass this spring was ok, but driving to my favorite haunts in Westport or Sakonet, just isn’t worth the gas for a couple hours of fishing.

Looking forward to a couple cortisone shots and future RFA on the lower back. If I’m walking a golf course, working around the yard or a carving I’m fine, sit me in a 90 degree or if I stand on pavement for too long and I’m toast. Thankfully my new interest in carving has kept me from wishing to badly I’m out on the water.

I am surprised, but very happy for you! I am trying to get down for a couple shots at them with Dangles in the near future!

They’ve been hitting short on the snacks so I rigged one with a stinger hook, got buttoned up good on one and bing,, the hook come loose, operator error knot….

Maybe three years back Sakonet was hot and I had an unbelievable day fishing my 4" split tails in an amber color, they just hammered it fishing fast with 3/8oz head for some casting weight. Hooked up with 15 and probably managed to land 8-9 of them and then exhausted I stopped casting to fish still feeding.
