Nice story - the plug mentioned has taken SOOO many big bass. Really amazing that not many others fish it.

Nov, 1985, local doctor from Falmouth Hospital, fishing eels, releasing a 50+? Yet another Sauerkraut sighting it seems.

Wife, and other naysayers tell me that I never forget a striped bass. Meanwhile, I forget b'days, anniversaries, and all sorts of other non critical aspects of life.

I certainly remember the young lad hanging on my rock and mooching "my spot" night after night, fishing his black needlefish. Nope, I didn't release any
"50's" in that area or that arena, but I appreciate his recognition.

Go get a smaller hat. He wasn't referring to you with the "nice guy" comment.

Friend: I would never make the error of thinking that I was a nice guy. I was entirely referring to the fact that I wasn't releasing an extra "50" in my life that really wasn't.

It wouldn't matter......the eel would deserve the credit...not you. Now the kid with the plug, that's a nice fish. Too bad you didn't learn anything from watching.
