    Default A warm hello

    Hello everyone,

    I have finally decided to join the site. Some of you I have met and some I have not. Let me introduce myself. I am the girlfriend of Darkskies .

    I love the sport of fishing and have been doing it since I was a little girl. The sad part is that I have never caught a striper. Well that is not all true. Last year I caught my first short and DS dropped it in the water before the picture could be taken. . Now he spends much of time trying to get me the fish of a lifetime.

    My weakness is my cast. Some of you have tried to show me how to improve. For some reason no matter how much I try I can't seem to whip the rod like the big guys out there. My strength is my ability to "feel" the fish as it is about to take my line. I have a gentle touch and finesse. (That will make a great post strength and weaknesses!)

    The biggest fish I caught was a 15lb bluefish. It tired me out so I am not too sure I would be able to pull in a 30 lb striper.

    I have enjoyed reading the posts here. Some of you put up pretty incredible stories. I have learned alot from all of you and hope to meet you soon.

    Tight lines and I'll see you on the beach.

    My condolences. :
    I think Dark is an acquired taste, but he loves all kinds of fishing, and he's never at a loss in a conversation. Welcome to the site anyway, Pebbles.

    Welcome Pebbles, catching a 15 pound blue fish is an acomplishment. They are very strong, powerful fish.

    There are times when a woman will outfish a man because of the extra finesse she has. Some of the best fly fishers in the world are women. Dark has done some great things with this site, imo and I am glad to be here at S&A. Welcome aboard, we look forward to your posts, Pebbles. Thoughts and prayers for your family.

    Hi Pebbles this is a great site, Dark is going a stand-up job. I like S&A, I hope you will like it here as well. Good luck with the family issues thing, if it's not one thing it's another nowadays.
