Definition of a boat; "A hole in the water that you throw money into"... I'm crewing on a Tuna/cod boat tommorrow- the acid test for the shoulder... But I may head out your way on Sunday. I figure with the foliage and the trout fishing it HAS to be a good day on the water... The house chores can wait! September and October are two of the best reasons to live in New England!!!! I had to laugh at the people at my last TU meeting saying that it wasn't worth fishing now that it's so cold(!?!). In a couple of months this will have seemed be a heatwave. That's okay though, I can live with less crowds...
