Basketball tourneys all weekend, but I've got some brined up clams I want to dunk in a local river or bay. Nice tides this weekend.

Try fishing for stripers at night through first light. I would find spots where the current picks up. Unweighted sluggos work, but I tend to throw crystal minnow magnums, bombers and mambos. There is no water coming over the dam, so I would stick to fishing the Holyoke side for shad once it gets light (the turbines under the fish lift will create current to work your darts). Remember the derby is finishing up this weekend, so be ready for lots of company. Hope this helped. PM me if you want more info.

Went out to the Bomba compound yesterday, saw Dad Bomba, Rappin Mikey and my niece. It was nice. We got almost everything done on the Lastcast2. She should be ready to trailer down to the Cape next weekend.

Did some honey do stuff (flipped car seat around, cleaning out cellar). Between Jess' and my weight losses, we're getting rid of lots of fat clothes.

Today, go out for the dinner we had to cancel last week due to Jack being sick (sorry Jess), and then stop by Scott Kershaw's in Gloucester to say hi on the way back to Waltham.

Maybe wash the car today, too.
