Default Maybe our last time too?

Maybe my last ride too.....I still owe Destroyer a striper trip as promised so if we can get a day somewhere with no to little wind I wont call this our last time out for the year....but just in case....

Tried trolling for Stripers but it was no deal....there was actually a small craft advisory for the day although it really wasnt that bad out there.....there was no wind to speak of so the bay was dead flat but with that storm that past us last week and sat up in NE there was the occasional 5' swell here and there....

RW, I gotta hand it to you... putting it on may be a PITA, but that enclosure looks great... really dresses up the boat. Don't worry about the Stripers... they aren't going anywhere.... springtime is just around the corner..

Probably was....he came out around the hook and then about 2 hours later he came back in up the Ambrose channel....(assuming it was the same boat , sure looked identical) Maybe he was taking her out for a spin! I did hear some talk on the radio that sounded official , something about dumping its tanks or something...wonder if it was that one?

that is a nice enclosure. Do you also have a backdrop or just the front and sides? I got a 3 sided enclosure made for my boat about 2 months ago. Its the best thing I ever bought for the boat. Not only does it keep me warmer it keeps me DRY. I went out fishing for a while this morning but also got nothing. A few slip customers at my marina got some Bass today. The fishing is very spotty and they are out about 1 1/2 to 2 miles.

Yes I do have the back for it too...although Sunday was the first time I actually used it and it was only for about an hour until it got entireley to hot in there. It has little bungee cords with plastic thingies on the end that attach to some floor mounted holders which I havent installed because I am not looking forward to kicking them with bare feet all summer just to be toasty the few cold days I use it.

I think if it was butt *** cold like in the 30's it would definitely be useful having a back but realistically I think the 3 sides is perfect for probably 98% of the boating I do.
