Albies from shore

doing my daily fall cruise where I get out work, swing by the house throw the rod on the car and just do laps around the drive and beaches looking for birds.

Really try to put some house stuff aside and put some serious time in. Thats been my problem all season. Havent had the chance to really put some SERIOUS fishing in. been alot of couple hours here and there this season.

wife's going back to work next week so I'll be home alot with the baby at night (she's a nurse and works nights). not much fishing for me this fall. we're going to cut her hours back to 2-12s per week, but not in time for fall. I'll sneak out here and there though. there's always next year, plus it looks like the fall could be a wash out anyway with tropical storms.

This is when I go back in the surf. I live for the Fall at the Canal. Had a great year 2 years ago. Fair last year so I'll be back especially when it's nasty and cold in October.

No boat, back in the suds.

I've been making plugs pretty heavily for the last two weeks and haven't really fished much.

I've probably fished half the nights I typically do as there's simply too many more important things for me to tend to. Many nights I get up and go back to sleep whereas in the past I'd get up at midnight and get out there for a few hours.

As for fall fishing, you can take it or leave it as there's many trips lost due to weather and the like. I've had some epic falls in my life and also some real duds (like last year) so I don't get too fired up either way. Will try to make one more trip to cutty, then concentrate on the canal after mid september.

i only fished rhodie a handful of times this year, a lot less than last, so there's going to be my focus for the fall run, of course the ditch will call my name plenty of times this month and next and i will have no self control to say no. NO KIDS, GF's hopefully pre-occupied at college, cuz im prepoccupied here already...... thats for another thread, and my job hopefully ends after my vacation on the 28th to go to Wales for the Ryder Cup practice rounds and First Round with my parents coming back on the 8th of oct. pfeww this is looking to be f'ing fantastic couple months

Hurricanes aside...Sept is the best month weather wise here without question. Warm, cool evenings, good fishing, everything is open and there are fewer people around to get in my way. (good by mr. obama and support crew) I plan my normal inshore derby fishing with a mix of boat and shore. Looks doubtful for any more trips south. (storms are putting the kibosh on that for the next couple weeks), but if a window opens and the fish are active I will see if I can schmooze a trip. I would really like to go east with my boat in mid-late Oct and dance with big giant for a few hours.
Then of course is my annual Tautog trips! great way to wind up the fishing year...I really look forward to a couple of big white chins.
