If I read the board right this morning, we have had a 100 new members join today ...so I want to welcome you all to what we think- know is the best fishing board in the world. You all know who you are so feel free to introduce your self's, tell us a little about you and where you are from.

My name is Shane. I joined the board the week of the WMO. I was stuck at work. I really appreciated the reports/pics that the admin was posting/sharing.

I am from 30 minutes outside of Harrisburg, PA. I grew up fishing the back bays in Delaware on my dad's 15 foot Tri-hall. I bought my first boat (20 foot Bayliner Capri open bow)back in 1998 when I graduated College. That boat was junk and a money pit. Sold it and bought my current boat in 2002. I run a 2000 20 foot Proline cuddy with a 150 merc OB on the back. Which is still a money pit but not as much as the Bayliner!!! Boat's name is Five 4 Fighting. I mainly bottom fish the inshore waters out from Indian River Inlet or the Delaware Bay. Last year I did troll up a couple Tunas just east of the Delaware Lightship. Which was a rush getting them on my own boat!!! MY biggest personal best flounder is 27 1/4" long and 6lbs 15 oz. Still can't break the 7 pound mark but I am trying...

I will be getting married on September 30th of this year. My wife to be likes to go out fishing with me when it is nice. She learned how to check the NOAA forcasts now so I can't even try to fool her into going out fishing with me when it is questionable...

My brother is a Mate in Lewes, De for Captain Chet on the Lil' Angler...

Not sure what else to write except I have enjoyed what I have seen here in the short time I was a member.

Again, Thanks Admin for the WMO coverage!!!

Guess I am next. My name is Tim. I run a 27' Grady CC out of Indian River and live in Gilbertsville Pa ( right between King of Prussia and Reading) Ive been mostly bottom fishing this year, trying to get it equipped to go offshore. Have installed radar and riggers. Been off a couple of times this year , when i can convince my dad to get the battlewagon ( 56 Viking) moving. Ditto on this board, its a great board with alot of information. It is exceptional and hope to post more on my trips very soon.
