Cannot wait man. We will crush them this year. Getting the final push together for all my stuff. My wife asked "How many plugs are you packing?" I said "over 100. Her response "WHY???"

Small job re-installing downspouts a client insisted on painting, after I took them down. Mow/mulch front lawn to nurture my late season reseeding. Dump run as I have two barrels filled just with cut outs from stair stringers. Cut a lot of stringers this week... And if there is time, start on the center console removal for tank replacement project. I have a few loose ends to tie up on the planning end of that as I got a message that fabricator wanted to use the 30-year-old pick up in new tank... That is not happening!
Close out weekend on Sunday with early family dinner to celebrate all fall birthdays

Jeff, already have reports of tons of fish yesterday. We will see. It doesn't matter. No fish on the Island is still a good day on the Island

Good luck out there B.I.-boys...remember, safety first, we ain't getting any younger -


GS, Tautog are still waiting around for ya... we got our limit on Sunday after 3 qts of greenies and over a quart of Asians.... loads and loads of 6 - 10" seabass to sort through , picked up a few jumbos too, season closed in RI though, ... Somehow this 25" fish made its way onto my hook, hello yum-yum!! Schools of mackerel finning on top, not being harrassed by anything, no blitzing fish, no bait-balls, no busy gulls...Fat-Lady all-warmed up and getting ready to sing -

We circled the island and found this thing docked nearby...

I mentioned to my crew, "I bet there's someone on the top deck right now staring down at us....wishing he was on this boat and not that ship"....they laughed and shrugged it off, but I remember on many occasion, while on a cruise-ship, seeing a small boat heading out with rods waving in the wind, and wishing I was with them.

Great day all - around, AND we beat the rain back to the dock.
