2/7/09 Southern Delaware fishermans flea market

[DarkSkies]

Took a ride to Milton Delaware today for the flea market. Before we got there we stopped and saw the water. It was powerful medicine, it was beautiful to see that water and walk the sand. I been cooped up workin every weekend for so long it's great to get out.

The people were cool and they had so much stuff for sale, raffles, 50/50, and food. Thanks to the Carlisle Fire Co 42 for hosting a great show. I would definitely recommend that show for people to check out.

This guy does woodburnings and some other art. Amazing detail, name is Dave. Check him out at some of the other shows if you run into him. Reasonable prices, great talent.

James Hanna, Author

Got a chance to talk with Mr Hanna for a bit. This guy is a one man book producing factory! There must be at least 10 books he's written, maybe more. He's been fishin since he was 6 years old, he knows the Delaware bay like the back of his hand. It was a privelege to talk to a man with such knowledge, and he's the nicest person you'd ever want to meet.


Look for him at the shows, or you can contact him at www.cherokeebooks.com.

Also met Shirley Donovan, from Donovan's Dock, Bowers Beach, Delaware. Shirley, I have to come down and check out a trip on one of your boats for the spring drum run. Nice talkin to ya!

There were a bunch of other cool people, everyone seemed like they were happy with the selections. There were quite a few deals to be found, from old reels, to deals on tackle, new reels, and gear. Everyone seemed like they were working hard to make sure people had a good time.
