I don't want to make you guys jealous, but my wife and I are headed out to Cozumel and Grand Cayman in a few days...I will soak up some sun and warm for each of you.

Randle, i'm sure grand cayman has changed since I was there. they have dykes, (mosquito canals) all over the island and I rented a bicycle, rode around finding these dykes with a 4lb spinner and small yellow bucktails. when you find them hang out until you see baby tarpon come up to breathe. cast the bucktail a few feet in front of them and hang on. nobody there fishes for these things so they slam whatever you throw at them. they were crashing these little bucktails like they never saw food before. I was catch and releasing 18 inch, baby tarpon all day long. it was some of the best inshore fishing I have ever done in my life!!!

I was just telling my wife the end of march for a boater is like Christmas for a kid. We wait and wait and wait to unwrap our boats ! I'm spending so much time on the web researching a new bilge pump , a battery terminal fuse block and a new set of bow lights.. if I didn't do this I think I'd absolutely loose my mind !!! I'm soooo done with this Ny weather,
