And if anyone were to get a trophy for getting bashed around in the white water...it would be you....

I think some of our members feel the same, though for some reason they take a lot of delight at your Ups and Downs of each trip....

Great report monty, love that white water. It would have been a little more authentic if you were swimming around like a dolphin, though. Maybe next time you can get a passer-by to take a pic as you frolic in the surf line.:laugh: :HappyWave: (just kidding) The table is set and we should start getting them real soon.

We should call him WWM for white water monty:HappyWave:

Ya know, I was thinking about this, and your obsession with that freaking white water......:laugh:....I'm wondering if the night you were conceived, your parents were on vacation at Montauk...because that's the only way your obsession makes sense...that obsession with the white water...putting yourself in the danger zone.....and some of the most difficult fish catching conditions.....I understand and embrace those conditions....but ya have to admit.... although it's :cool:...

The morning we fished for the first time, 1-2 foot waves bayside, wind and rain.....invigorating, battling and casting like crazy for a blue fish. Thats fun!!!
Fishing ocean side, wind in the face, on a sand bar, battling to stay on the bar, bass or blues within reach, a wave here or there breaking over your head in October or November. Thats not FUN????
I need the intense "fun" to take my mind off all the crap in this screwed up world. With a wave breaking over my head, believe me, the farthest thing from my mind is the daily routine. Out there trying to catch a fish is a blast. The key word is trying. I don't need to be catching (thats the icing on the cake).

The past year was full of white water, sun rises and a decent amount of dead stuff. I was quite lucky (thank god for Long Island!!!!).

Happy birthday monty don't drink and drive. :HappyWave:

Whoa Nelly. Just a minute! Monty is a great contributor and has put a lot into that thread. He started it and forged a new path in angling history! But he is not the king I am! He might be a close second while I have been sucking wind this year. I'll give him that. He's definitely the King of white water as you guys said. I'm still the King of the dead things tho!
Monty I hope you are not mad at me for coming in here and saying that. Apologies for hijacking the thread. I had to set the record straight. I hope your birthday gave you everything you asked for and you catch lots of fish in the months ahead. Cheers and best wishes!:HappyWave: :birthday:

Sorry to burst the bubble dude but I say you two are about tied over the years. I really think monty is doing better since he started to fish long island. NJ SUCKS for dead things this year.

Gee Whiz the guy finds one unidentified loch ness monster in his life and he's still milking it 5 years later.:rolleyes:
Still if you want to be the dead things king I want to see at least one crazy thing like that per year! I totally get where you're coming from. Much respect for all the miles you put out to find this stuff. I had a few good years too and you don't see me bringing up my mega finds from the past. It's all about today and 2015!

Honestly this year has sucked for me. If it wasn't for all those bluefish I found in may I would be in last place. If you want the undisputed title you will have to battle for it. I will say I think you and I are the 2 best dead thing finders on the east coast! No one out there can come close. For now we'll see what happens. Waiting for a few noreasters in the fall and hoping they bring one of the gillnetters or belford pirates catches up on the shore for a dead things bonanza.:drool:

:2flip: :HappyWave:?????? Wow I can't believe you said that. Its good to know when one has friends in this world?? Is it too late for me to join the effumall club?
Yes NJ does suck for dead things. We can only hope for some big storms this fall to shake things up.

Man that has got to be some powerful list of wishes for life achievements lol
storminsteve, 3rd grade wishlist

1 become a fireman
2 kiss my hot teacher
3 fart in class and blame it on someone else
4 tell a funny story in the lunchroom so milk comes out of one kids nose
5 become a lifetime master at finding dead things :kooky:

:viking:
Dead stuff. Find it, take a pic, jump up and down, post pic, be Dead Things King.....it's what I do.
Storminsteve and I rule the east, imposters like Dark and his headless torso are just that, fly by night dead thing dreamers.
It takes a certain amount of character to find.......Dead Stuff :headbang:

You tell em man! It's not easy to find these things. Sometimes you have to walk miles and miles. Look at the dead things thread do you see one anywhere like it on the net? We're specialists!:headbang:
