ancient mariner · 08-21-2005, 08:22 PM

HI:
Reputable comm fisherman call me and is CRYING for crying out loud.
All I hear is BLUBBERING telling me he's standing on a dock WATCHING 100 to 125 pound BFT crashing Mackerel just outside the surf line.
JUMPING JIMMINY CRICKETS ON A CRUTCH ! I say..........
He's there with his 11 year old watching this and NO FISHING rod. NO BOAT.
Just him and his boy ON A PIER! YE GADS, YOU JUST CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP!
In 5 minutes, 3 guys come screamin down, jump in a DORY with a hnadlein( for gosh sake), row out and toos a dead stinking mack that was on the comm. dock.
BANG there on, He watches them being towed away for a good 3 minutes. Snap, Pow, Bang, BOING, goes the handline and away goes the Tuna with all of it's school mates.
I tell you guys, YOU JUST CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP!.

Oh, this all happened just outside of Halifax Nova Scotia in Terrence Bay inlet.
I can't wait to get up there with a 12/0 rod n reel and a 2-4 ounce JETHEAD on a boat. AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH.
I'm up there in about 4 weeks. I got to see my oldest boy RAL for a while. I promised him I would take him fishing when he gets better. YAOUWZA!
WACKM N STACKM

This past dec I had a double header between the trawler and lighthouse in morehead. One was 90" and the other 96". We were about 150yds off the the point.

Anything can happen in the wild. Over here in a tidepool someone saw and speared a 130 lb Ahi. With a dang 3 prong spear. Spear looked like a palm tree blowing in the wind afterwards but they got it. They said it was chasing some baitfish and got caught in the tide pool. Oh and someone also speared....err....wrestled a 150 lb marlin in a tidepool somewhere around here also. They saw it rolling in the surf trying to get out. Walked right up to it and feasted on smoke marlin for weeks.
