Surf Fishing Club Challenge / Cookout - Important

Not sure if I'm getting down tonight or tomorrow for the cookout as I'm running a bit of a fever right now. If it ceases I'll be down tonight - or tomorrow morning depending.

If I am able to fish, I'm fishing, just don't want to get people sick. I'm sending the names in for the tourney right now.

I'll post later on on what the status is for the cookout tomorrow. If you are going to be offline, please PM me your cell# and I'll let you know the status - thanks!

John

So that means the lovely Mrs R has postponed the estate sale, I guess...

Be careful out there, guys and gals. Unfishable up this way. Causeway was closed an hour before high. Bowling ball sized boulders thrown over the seawall....

I fish SoCo this morning. Got 12 bass between 24 and 32". Sad for late Oct. Checked the front and the water was milky/coffee color. Snow mixed in from 4:30 AM to about 5:45.

Saw TT at a breachway but didn't stop as he was way out front. I just got home. 6 hours of that snot was enough for this old cogger.

No boat, back in the suds.

Hey, ya made the effort anyway, Paul

I woke up at 4:30 AM, and let the dogs out - they walked out on the deck, looked around and came right back in

Figured they were trying to tell me something so we all went back to bed...

Figure I'll clean and check gear until this blows over and the wind swaps around on Tuesday

SNOW????

Grrrrr...
