Not I.The death and destruction brought on by them just isn't worth the "thrill".
Plus we have more than one house still in the framing stage.
STAY AWAY!!! |

I certainly wouldn't mind the surf from an offshore storm either! |

I fished the same storm at watch Hill with Bobby Ward and RJ, Gill and Tony Bucci. It was in fact unbelievable. If the waves didn't kill you every fish was a 30. I believe Halloween 1991.

I have a bad feeling about this one.
I have a cousin named Donna (that one hit RI in 1960).
I had a cousin named Carol (1954).
I have a sister named Gloria (hit LI in 1985, after I moved here).
My aunt Irene passed away last year.
I don't have any relative named Bob, but that one skirted LI and walloped you guys up in NE.
Any hurricane that's hit where I lived head-on has been named for one of my relatives  |

Donna was the first Hurricane I remember. I hope Irene comes in as a tropical storm, that it does no damage, kicks up the surf and puts about 2 inches of rain on my house. My lawn is dead and the trees and bushes are starting to looked sick.

Spence; surf is building.. nice surge last night...
All depends on the Bermuda high; if it shifts in and blocks us no dice; if it doesnt  watch out...
Having some percentage of resposnibility for 4 boats from 13-60ft I hope she misses us... |

At what point does the fishing take off with the appraoching storm?? Before the surf gets huge or as it gets really close and the winds kick up?? Any favorite lures to throw in a big swell?
