Fun Day Fishing
Went out scup fishing with my oldest daughter and her kindergarten class--a bit rocky out today but damn was it nice to be out on the water. One of these days I gotta buy a boat.

A bad day of fishing is always better than a good day at work!
It looks like you had some fine weather. How did you make out?

Very true. We caught 4 little scup. Someone caught a small tautog. Stripers are starting to hit pretty good right now I hear.

Re: Fun Day Fishing
I get sick just looking at that water. My ancestors were definitely not seafarers. I wonder how the first one got here back in the 1600's....hot air balloon???
Nice to spend time with the kiddos on a beautiful day though!!

A couple of weeks ago while at the docks in Plymouth MA. The guys on their boats said the stripers were hitting.

Re: Fun Day Fishing
The family has pushed the "buy us a boat" thing very hard several times. I've managed to hold my ground. There are good reasons for the old saying, "The two happiest days of my life were the day I bought my boat ... and the day I sold my boat."Washashore wrote:The maintenance, cost of the slip or mooring, insurance, etc...

Being on the water is tough to beat though. I'm glad you had a good day.
