hey par let the son take over the farm house, more $ for you to fish with. ;).

Went out Sunday in the sound by me, got to fish 1hr 30 min, the stripers were boiling the water. Me and my buddy caught 58.
We had nice fish for the sound around 22" long with 5 up to 28"lg. That's not bad for the Albermarle Sound where the water is brackish. We get to keep 3 a piece with minimal size at 18" and not slot or max

This trip cost me 2 gallons of gas.

All I got to say is you can't catch a Striper with the remote in your hand. You got to go look for them and sometimes you find them and somtimes you don't. Thats why its called fishing. A friend of mine says that you got to pay your dues before you start catching and he is right. At least you were fishing.

Hey Garage, if I put the boat in at E.C. by the shipyard, how far is it to the sound? It dosent look like it would be very far.

I don't want to talk about gas every time I fill up this dam truck 65.00 and It seams it always empty hay Mac make sure the ice is good and thick

Thanks! Man,I didnt think it was that far out to the sound. Are you still catching stripers (rock) out there? I wish they would come on up the Chowan river, guess its got ta get colder for that ta happen! Oh, Congrats on your retirement. My dad worked at NNSY for 38 years, had a heart attack and passed away 2 weeks before he got his first retirement check. He was only 56. It must be pretty stressful in there.

Sorry to hear about your dad C FELT, it can be stressful. I went out to Rudee Last Friday and we only got one (Cape Charles) but it was a 39lber. I'm going to go later this week if you want to go. You Too 2nd.

BY the way I put the new 350 in her last winter and Last friday when we went out the motor ran for 8.5 hrs and it averaged 1.7 gal a hour. Not bad I didn't think.
