Forcast for Maine is for a Noreaster Tuesday night - Wed. 11 ft moon tide with storm surge - Someone's going to get their feet wet.

I don't know about this weather. Pulled my boat out of the back yard a week and half ago to get it ready to fish and it has been raining on everyday I had time to work on it. Maybe I'll just put the oil skins on and plop some cut bait in the river and see what happens. Would like to have a little Striper on the Barbeque soon.

Oh well pray for sunshine and warmer water.

TUE NIGHT
N WINDS 25 TO 30 KT WITH GUSTS UP TO 50 KT. SEAS 12 TO
17 FT. RAIN. VSBY 1 TO 3 NM AFTER MIDNIGHT.

Should be interesting....with the full moon and all.

Just heard on the radio that we should expect gusts exceeding 60 now. Looks like a couple more trees will go. I am going out today on the boat then lashing it to the dock and going to put a few extra lines on my neighbors boat (who does not do the best job tying it up and never comes to look at it)

Today is a good day to play hookey.

big tides, big NE winds, big rain, strom surge, coastal erosion

plovers will be displaced from their nest, prolonging their process, and making the closures last longer... downright depressing outlook... 32 year old local guy who fished "my" beach was found in his truck down there last Friday AM... ate his shotgun, nobody seems to know why... I saw him down there last weekend, tossed some plugs with him, shot the breeze, he seemed OK

friggin sad... but he did keep mentioning how it all seemed to be going away down there.......
