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.
