went out this am boatless - wife insists I don't go out alone and I tend to agree. spent 4 hours on herring brook getting teased by a few that tore off the bait slapped the surface and sent my hook flying back at me.
Caught one hell of an eel - 32" and think as a baseball.
didn't feel up to making my first eel dinner so I let that slimy monster go back in the drink. I know where my eel pots are going this week!!!
Thanks for all the tips. Any of you willing to do a tandem boat trip with me some time to help me learn?
macojoe - I spent some time talking to the climbing instructor at ScoutCamp (I am an asst scoutmaster) . She made a point that anyone who is not afraid of heights has no business climbing. Reason is without a little fear you are more liable to do something that will get you, or someone else, killed. I must say I strongly agree with her - and you.
