I just moved back to MA last week from the west, and I missed it bad. Thinking about a trip south so I don't have to wait another six months.

i've been trying for a week to pack it up. then my buddy came back from jersey with some live clams. and well.. ya know what happened..
of course got skunked.. but what ever. was thinking of maybe hitting first light today. dunno if its worth the effort (aka being friggan freezing) to get skunked again. but i really really really wanna.

i'm thinkin some southward trips are comin very soon. we refuse to quit.

Considering all that I've been ignoring in my life for the last 6 months, the winter often isn't long enough.

Larry, we already have one, S-B.com! We can sit around in a circle with keyboards or laptops and...well, best not go there.

Your right John, us Bass fishermen have no problem, it's the rest of the population that are n-n-n-nuts.

wowowowowowow! that was one burning zinger!

but ya know, the reality of it is i probably will fish straight into next season. gonna keep going till i catch something. i have to at this point.

but then the ultimate fishing problem.. if i hook into something.. i' wont be able to stop. it will be right back to "tomorrow.. theres always tomorrow" or in my case.. "next tide... theres always next tide" until i get back into my 3+ month long skunking. then i will be right back where i am now. and will have to fish till i catch something again. and by then it will next season..

so i either hang it up now.. or just never stop..
