I'm staying in to make a smorgasbord of different striper dishes with my fish from last nite. Fish tacos are the only definite at this point.

I am catching plenty of fish but there all cookie cutter common august bass of 6lbs to 12lbs. Who needs anotherone of those? There are tons I mean tons of silversides everywhere, so I guess if you live close and want some school bass action, go for it. A few more fish for me tonight aint worth it !

Its as good a time as any to rest up! Plus its all out come sept,Oct,Nov ! I cant wait!!

Should be a good night for it, Vic, as warm as it is -

I've been bird-watching from the porch all afternoon, tying up leaders and nursing my sprained foot -

There's been flocks of long-legged bed-thrashers fluttering up and down Thames St. all day long - with a few red-breasted warblers mixed in from time to time, too
