Who would you fish with?

[piemma]

So it's 10 years since the start of this thread. As you get older you look back and reflect on, not who you caught the most fish with but, who you had the most fun with. After all is said and done this should be about having a good time.

Here is my list:

Clammer who has mooned every living soul on th Bay but is my Fluke and BSB guru, my old surf partner RIRockhound who I spent hundered of hours with from Narrow River the Watch Hill, Back Beach and Tony O at the canal, John Habs (God rest his soul) at Fresh Pond Rock, Quonny and the Block. Steve Mckenna at Frenchmans Reef. Al Pellini at NR and the Block. He who cannot be mentioned, on the Bay and at Napatree in late November. Toby at Watch Hill Light oh so long ago. A lot of guys who have gone to the beach in the sky like Gil Guillitone, Chet Tomkins, Gene Ayotte, Lanny Grazini Dave Hammock, Charlie Murat.

I am past the age of wanting to fish with "the greybeards", I am one of them. About 50 years in the surf and boat with a couple off for the service and I wouldn't change a thing. Probably another 10 left in these old legs and then hang it up. But I still look forward to every year like I was 16.
