And if anyone on this net objects to what i just said
they can kiss my big, white a...anytime during the 3rd week
in May.

Thanks eelskimmer. I appreciate that.

I was originally thinking it would be after fish showed up in Montauk (last yr i saw fish to 20lbs on May 20th) in MTK, but the more I think about it, Canal fish are likely on a different migration and different path than MTK fish alltogether.

Thanks again
