I would rather fish than give up one of the limited days we have left for the season.

And that is exactly what I did and thouroughly enjoyed myself and Numbskulls company as well.

I agree, too early, need at least until the end of Oct.
Although it rained most of the day after sunrise down on the Cape, at least the wind and wave stayed away.
But then at least where my boat was and it was alot of places, the fish had gone to striperfest.

Like most get togethers, its the side sessions with friends old and new that make the event.
The show itself was pretty good, but didn't blow me away. Its the first time I've been to the brewery so it was a fun experience.

The highlight for me, however, came during my last 10 minutes in the parking area. An unidentified person approached my driver side window as I was attempting to summon someone behind him for a ride.....

It was none other than our beloved BassDawg....
