Skitter I had no fog in Barnstable, although the guy I went with is from south Plymouth and he said he was fogged in. Went after work last nite, 12:30, till 8 this morning. My buddies ass must be draggin right now at work. I had the day off. Plenty of blues trashing my eels drifting in the boat. Several small keepers. No better no worse as far as moon. Very strange fishing under all that light. The camps at beach point looked like little village you put up at x-mas time, very surreal. You could hear a pin drop it was so calm and quiet. Ran up on several sand bars with the boat that I never have a problem with. Probably the lowest tide I have ever seen there. Guy had to be towed out of mud at ramp because he tried to launch at dead low. The inner harbor stunk. When it got light out at low tide I saw things I never have seen before, bars and such. Did manage one 30 lber at first light on an eel. Pretty normal if anything a little slower. Paul

Full moons can really suck sometimes. I was hoping for clouds, but all I got was excercise and a lack of sleep.
I think the full moon makes everyone on the message board cranky.

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.
