Re: epiphany for an old fisherman
Hey Guys, Thanks for the input just was wondering what everyone thought about the subject. After a good nights sleep I'm seeing a little clearer this morning. " Man with Boat" mmmmmm not a good thought. I'm 73 still working 5 days part time at a sherwin williams paint store and have off during the week. Was a long time member of the Keasby Boat Club. Haved tied rigs for B-P Tackle in the day and currently building my own poles of course tying my own rigs, saltwater flies and now doing Spro type jigs for my friend to sell at next years fishing flea market. As some of you decribe when me and my friend are out on the water we are like a couple of kids in a candy store and of course as you guys know everytrip is new adventure. We were catching some snappers for bait by the oceanic bridge and my friend told me on the way home how much fun that was. Was thinking of getting a pass again for the Sayreville ramp in addition Rumson next year and fish my old haunts in the upper bay ( the triangle, the boils off Morgan, Dental Works, Round Shoal, Keansburg and Keport Flats, Bouy 20 etc. Can't work on cars anymore but love tinkering around with my boat except for work on the engine. Hey Pectoral Fin maybe if your looking for some company and sharing expenses next year we could always hook up. Down to only one friend to fish with and he is not always available. My other fishing partner at 74 who lived in Fl half the year hooked up with a women and now stays down there full time.. LOL. Damm left me a women, thats some nerve of him. Anyway thanks for letting me air out some laundry and appreciate everyones thoughts. Yup if I had to fish just for food I might be pretty slim. Hope the winter is a mild one and looking forward to next year. Tight Lines..... Walt
