The hell with the retirement party. He don't need it. Take the old horses to the barn and just shoot them. Saves on hay and feed.

Let's not try to be so harsh on some of us old folks. Some of us were catching fish when you were still in diapers.
Dark have not seen a fishing report from you in a while. Hope things are going ok.

rofl true true. Put finchaser and bucket against some of the young guns and see who catches more fish.

DS is a yout in his early 50's don't want him in the old farts he hasn't earned it

My Lord you guys are harsh!
I'll pray for ya's...... that your sins be forgiven.

Fin..... you and the OFFC already inducted me into the Old Farts Club....ya can't revoke membership if I haven't committed any violations!.....check those by-laws and get back to me.....


Those who know me know that I'm finally starting to make some $$....that has to come first.....for many years my priorities suffered because I would drop everything to stay on a bite once I found one and come back to exploit it......
I really screwed up my life doing that.......yeah I caught lots of fish....good memories.........there is wreckage in my life...I'm still paying for....because of that obsession to be on the fish when they were around...or travel to where they were thickest....

I also spent a lot of my spare time and money driving around the East Coast...going to fisheries management meetings...fighting for all the fishermen out there....fishing access......landmark access cases.....

I sometimes ask myself what nice fishing gear I could have had....if I did not go to those meetings, fight those fights...and spent the $$ on myself....instead of fighting for others.....but Fin and his lunatic rantings really helped to change my perspective on things...and committment to raising awareness....
So I don't really regret that part....though I am poorer for it today....it is what it is...








I realize you're only busting my balls.....
It's all good...it has motivated me a bit....
My life right now...is what it is....
And thanks for the ball busting....I would tell ya's to go eff yourselves...but some who don't know me...might take it the wrong way...


So feel free to keep it up......Good job....
One day soon those half-senile old basstids Monty and Fin will eat their words...that's all I'll say for now...

Well I for one and happy you are good with it.
I am thinking of starting pools on whether you would fish first or finish a thought on some of the threads you started.
Also have been worried you may change the site to ThinkingAboutStripersAndFishing.com
But on the other hand, your idea for the Arm Chair Fishermman Book, because less people are actually on the water now may be a winner. You are gathering a lot experience on the subject.....your a sleeping legend.

I think the guys are just teasing you Dark. Terms of endearment so to speak. If they didn't care they would not. Would like to see you get out fishing more. Your reports are missed. Be well.

[jigfreak]

Yeah man just busting your balls. You're welcome out on the sods anytime. Saw that jetty thread I don't fish jettys that much because the fishing has got so bad. You're right there used to be some large pulled from them.
