worried

[Sea Dangles]

I tried the yak thing about five years ago when Iron Mike let me borrow his for the year.I honestly preferred my Old Town canoe to fish out of (ask T O).Jimmy is right when he talks about that feeling,I love fishing in my boat at night,it's the nuts even when the fishing blows.That being said, I am probably going to trailer all year rather than keep my slip in New Bedford.I have no problem launching a 23 alone and it gives me a lot more options for where I can fish. Last year I used ramps in Scituate,Marshfield, Plymouth,Sandwich,Chatham,Westport and Point Judith.So maybe I'll just tune up the trailer and continue being a traveling angler.

love my gas sipping skiff all morning/night on 6 gals. my old boat would use 14 gph cruising- that would hurt now.

No fish in Westport, just sayin. Or Falmouth, Or Green Pond, Or WoodsHole, Or Wareham, or ....

I have been holding back on my slip also . I really don,t know why .because I only have two options with that boat .....slip or trailer next to the house .
trailering is not a option for me / never mind the crowds & fluster cucks ........ i have to be real ,i no longer have the strenght or ability to tow / launch & haul out on a regular basis .
last fall when i took it out / the wind was so strong ,it actually took 3 of us to get it out .
But on the plus side ....my marina is so concered about gas .that when they sent out the contracts . they dropped $10 per ft . since then they have dropped another $5 . SOOOOO the good news is it would cost me a lot less to stay tied to the dock than the previous years ;;
I am 100% sure my tin boat WILL get a serious workout this year . but in reality its not the same .
I,ll have to hold my boundries & watch the weather / were with the sea Hunt .. that doesn,t matter ;;
OH well . I told Scott I want to get a metal detector anyway

Maybe we can find a way to turn the lights on so they stay on - you know, for safety.
