I'm in the same boat as you. I've been working more hours than ever the last few months and have had much less time to fish. Yesterday was the first time I got out in the morning and fished from 5am till 7:15 then rushed home to get my son on the bus and went to work. I figure as much as it sucks, I'm lucky to have a good job that lets me provide for my family and myself. Besides, the fish will be around at some point when I'm out there. At least that's what I keep telling myself.

It did repeat this morning so I was able to get out there for a coupla hours before work. Only one fat mid-30 inch fish to show for it. They were super-focused on the peanuts and herring fry. Not checking messages until I am about to leave work today......

For a guy who owns a striped-bass fishing website, it would seem that you should fish a little more than you do. I hope you at least get to fish more than Spence. There's a rumor that he found his fishing gear behind some garment bags filled with designer suits in his basement and is considering using it before the fall run is over.

Don't answer the phone if you know who's calling!

The anxiety will dissapate gradually until you can get out!
