I’ll just go to the car, get a pencil and use the dash board to write out an American Express check for you…Wait here, I’ll be right back.
‘Tis true, I have identified a scam, self-proclaimed at that!
Okay, I want a new 18’ Hewes Redfisher flats skiff; price $33,000! (very nice skiff, and would proudly be kept in the garage to replace my former Hewes).
Here’s the scam…
There are over 6000 members on this board, give or take a few. If each one of you send me a cashiers check for a mere five bucks (Canadian money accepted) that would get me around 30K. I would be more than willing to chip in the other 3 grand to pay the balance!
I could then sell my skiff that I’m rigging for 4K, and that would net me a profit of a grand, thus paying for the first two years of insurance, gas, etc!
So, who will be the first to send me a check…that’s cheaper than two boxes of Girl Scout cookies???
So, ye wanted to know what a pirate is?)
my check is in the mail. just don’t try to cash it.
Does that $5.00 offer include a guided fly fishing tour aboard the new Hewes ? If not, I’ll send $5.00 in Monopoly money !
I just sent a check as well. Go ahead and cash it. (it will come out of florida flyers account)
I fed a check into that little slot on the side of my computer. You should have it shortly.

Dude, I volunteer to be your Northern states collection point

Salty…(wink)…of course it does.
Dave, I’m still tryin’ to cash the last check you sent, but I can’t find my pen that writes on rubber!
Betty…use the other slot!!!
swen…that dawg won’t hunt, Ed’s broke from buyin’ that Finor.
ftroop, I’ll trust you and Micus will keep my monies in check!
I need an addy…I see no addy in your profile. Send addy.

Okay, I’m up to 30 bucks. If things don’t pick up here shortly, I’ll be forced to invent another scam…
i suggest a jerry lewis type telethon. i’d be happy to host it. we can have you on camera, tears in your eyes because you don’t have a flats skiff. we’ll get all those old has been performers like tony orlando and dawn to appear for free. then we’ll split the proceeds 50-50.
Deal…set it up, but do we need a contract? Have your people call Engleburt Humperdinck’s people!

good news–wayne newton is in!
True pirates to say the least. I hope Linda will do the captaining. The check is in the mail
Oh don’t forget the green stamps you promised
Geezer
Excus my spelling and gramma, I hooked Mondays and Fridays so I could Hunt or fish.

Now where did I put that Monopoly game? I know there is a five spot in it…
I think the Captain & Tenille would be a good choice to open for Wayne? You could finish up with a bunny hop line up and down the beach.
“muskrat love” will bring the house down!
yuck
I think I’m changing my mind.
Muskrat stew maybe.
Yo Flats Dude, why not rent out that new Marryat to all 6000 members, one at a time ! By the time we’ve all caught a fish, it’d really make a good fish stew ! Just don’t know how much the freezer would run to store all the shipped fish ?
Dude, much to your benefit you don’t know me but I am always willing to help out the downtrodden long rodder I happen upon. I would mbe willing to help you out with a little ready cash and take the old one off your hands for a generous 2000.00. I’ll even pick it up and save you the trouble of delivering it. What a guy, huh?
