Went out on the 23rd, way past the ferry. Had a bump but no take. It was beautiful out, little overcast, but with a system coming in from the SouthWest, a wall of a system. Cleared up, sun came out, it was just o-so-purty out. Then the system came across. Winds picked right up, waves made Wayn-o-Mac pee in his survival suit, Snarf gave the order to pull up the drift sock and it was off to calmer climes.
Trolled everywhere, threw everything at them but nothing other than the one bump. Wayne-o-Mac and the Snarf suck. I just had the ill luck to be fishing with them. Actually, on second thought, Wayne-o-Mac doesn't suck, he was a victim of poor driving. Snarf Sucks. Yeah, that' it, Snarf Sucks. His fault. No question.
Saw a grand total of five boats on the water all day. I saw old Dan Elliott out there in the rocket, couldn't get his attention. Called his # from the boat, his son says he wasn't home. No kidding. Thought the number I had was his cellphone. Shoulda left a message.
Finally, in going over the board in the past couple of days I've come to the conclusion that as far as Stanley20footer is concered, that:
a) he's my nightmare wife.....not the one I have, but the one I'd dread.
b) secretly has life insurance on all board members.
c) is my alter ego, the one that is thankfully repressed and fully
recessive. Thank God the dark side is fully in control at all times.
d) wasted his money on a Stanley 20 footer
e) would most definitely benefit from coming over to the dark side.
The usual New Years thing is party at Mux's house, big BBQ, eat, drink, be merry and then ice fish on New Years Day. Not this year, boyos. The only ice is in my drinks (and in Stan's posts). Might just have to do the tour to Quinte on New Years Day. Last year we were in the water at Picton on January 10th.
Happy New Year to all, even Stan.
Mux
