Hope it is over by Saturday night. One of the biggest bluefish tournaments in New england is here on Cape Ann with over 600 fishermen on Sunday. We have the Lanesville Bluefish Tournament on Sunday of labor day weekend.

Any room on the boat? That's a good money tourney that even a chump like me could win if the right Bluefish runs into my lure. Then again there could be only a few boats out there and a shore fish may take the prize...

The blues still here since the last storm? Did see a guy on Channel 7 with one grinning like an idiot in the story about a guy losing his life...

"Twitch....Twitch....Twitch....WHAM!"

The good news is that:

a) the storm is moving fast but the time it gets up here and we should not have any intense winds for long durations.

b) the fact that we are on the downwind side and the storm is advancing fast, the peak wind will be lower.

Unless this makes a move to the west (which is unlikely with the big front moving thru) we should be OK ...yes there will be trees down and power outages but again I think the good news is that it is outtahere fast.

I took my outriggers off and dropped antennas, removed all canvas and cushions outside...tomorrow will put it on a mooring in tashmoo and double up on the line and make sure there is a good chafe protection and keep my fingers crossed.
