Canal is slow. I know there have been reports of fish and I have been getting my share but the biggest so for is 22# and almost everything else has been rats.
Fished from 3 to 5:30 AM this morning in a monsoon rain. Tide just turned, full moon, overcast and rain. 3, 25" rats to show for almost 3 hours.

No boat, back in the suds.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

I haven't wet a line yet. Every year May seems to fly by due to other responsibilities and I don't get to fish. This weekend I will.

I got started really late and like some others...just not feeling the bug yet to go. Went surf casting a couple times...a few bluefish. There are some bass around but not in the mood to go out for some reason. (perhaps it's low T? )

So I chip away at small jobs on the boat and I am not even pushing to get it in. I work for a couple hours early in the morning until my back hurts then back to the house or the office. Boat is looking good though, got a lot of little projects off my check list.

Just finished painting the bilge...(It was always clean but I had the paint for 2 years and figured I better use it) I seem to get more satisfaction out of working on the boat then I do fishing...at least at the moment anyway. As soon as I hear there are tuna or white marlin around I may put it in gear.
