Been A Year and a Half

[bubbacee7]

Happy Friday Fishing Family,

Been at least a year and a half I think since I have been on the water. Fishinmike, our sister and I were caring for our Pops who passed from Parkinson’s last November and as we promised we have continued to remain at the house to care for our mom and the love oh his life. Been so long that I almost forgot my paddles and my poles.

Well I got out on the water to take a little birthday time for myself. Launched at the Shelter Island launch ramp. Scooted out casting my plastics and trolled some. Water was about 67 and it was warm above the water. Not many out on the bay. Lots of water movement, seaweed and grass. All in my way. Missed a couple bites but ended up snagging two spotties that were toads and a sandie that was subway size. Hooked into something big off of the Shelter Island Pier but it got wrapped up and couldn’t get him out.

All and all not a bad 3 hours of me time.

Thanks Dad for teaching me the love of fishing and being a great father to us. Love you and miss you.
