Jim Here aka Whiplash. I've been around this board for 3-4 years and i'm on a few others, but this is the old go to board .
I live in Mattapoisett and have been fishing Cape Cod to Rockport to Napatree fro the past 45 years. Now that makes me feel old! Right now it's mainly the canal and Cape Ann with about 6 trips a year to Montauk . I recently bought a cottage in Sag Harbor / Noyack NY so I've been down there alot only 25 miles to Montauk. Finally put a bike together for the canal - what took me so long ?So I'm set for the fall migration. You'll see me around the canal day ( I work about 5 mins from it) and night. I drive a black suburban so say hi.

Hi, Im Tom.

Originally from God Dam Waltham, then the Irish Riviera ( Green Harbor/ Marsh Vegas) and now Sandwich... I work in the communications - managing cell towers...

I got 2 kids ( boys--THANK GOD) , an understanding first wife and a few bad habits - Fishing and Hunting..drinking use to be another but life has changed and I only get out a few times a year...

Found this site about six years back but joined in 2005....been mostly a lurker but I have learned many things about fishing and people from this site as well as another bad habit........PlugBuilding..thanks.

I want to thank John for this site and the many cast of characters that over the past few years have entertained me and enlightened me.... I am sure that I have fished next to and talked to a few members on this site while fishing the Ditch and I hope to meet many more out there away from our monitors and key boards....

As Summer winds down and the Fall season begins , may everyone be safe, catch large and enjoy....

My name is Dan, I live in the fabulous Hamptons busting my butt making the landscapes beautiful
I found this site searching for info, and I keep coming back because you guys are a wicked pissah and every once in while you sell off some nice gear. I like reading how its going up north and seeing #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& nailing back to back monsters etc. I fish from Shinnecock Inlet east to Montauk, where I'm scratching a hole in some rocks ...
You got cool sponsors and members here. I hope to make it to Block I. in September and Rhody too. Everybody go Laaahhgge. dancowski

Hi, I'm josh. I'm a structural engineer, mostly bridge inspection, rating, design and rehab work. I'm a surf guy and really don't have much interest in anything else - though I really want to get out and do some plugging for SBFT. I've learned a ton from this site in the last few years, especially after hanging around long enough to figure out who to listen to and who to dismiss. I'm a long way from being where I want to be as a surf fisherman but I'm alot closer than I would be if I was just figureing things out on my own. I feel that I owe alot to guys like DZ, Bassmaster (hey, that's his needle in my avatar) and #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& for the information that they've provide here and wish those guys came around more often - tons on information and experience there, not to mention entertainment in the winter.

Met alot of great people though this site on the cuttyhunk trips and other events and look forward to meeting more. I'm pissed that I have to miss the fall cutty trip this year - though I usually feel like my chances for fish are better in my home waters, the company will be missed. ok, i'm really just pissed that I'm missing JohnR's wife's shepards pie.
