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.

Had fish in gansett monday in the clouds.to around 20lbs.then it cleared up an the moon came out an my bag was all wrong.so i went to the truck changed things up an moved an caught some more.Fished Gansett fri.night in beatifull water.not a touch fished bout 3/4 of a mile of rocks.nothing.Tuesday they put the fish net out.An I noticed a big decline in the catching in the bayside rocks.Dark to moon will make the fish move in the bright moon they can spread out an ambush in many little hidey holes.on the beach the might move off.they got fins they move all the time find a deep hole u'll find em.

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

good time with you the other night. I WILL be coming to Jersey in December if you are still getting fish. As Bryan said, we saw you sleeping Sat night. I actually walked over to your truck but Bryan said "Let'm sleep!
