The Rock's are in the bay up to Deale and Annapolis.

Went out with the "group" on a head boat out of Deale Friday morning.
Left the dock at 5:30 AM and we were back at 8:00 AM after we had caught
our limit. We never lost sight of Deale. We were dragging 30+ umbrellas
and single lures attached to planes. All lures were white. Smallest we
hooked was a 26" and the biggest was a 40". They were nice and fat too.

Must have been out by 83A, which is where I've put a lot of stripers
in the boat. Do you remember the name of the boat or the captain you
were out with?

I won't use umbrellas though. Too damn much trouble. Glad you had a
good day out there!
Loosen Up, Frank Carver
Cool. Frank is the guy I went out with on my first trip in the Bay. We
went out before the season started, and he took two of us for $50
each. We were the only two guests on the boat, but he still had all
the lines out. The poor mate was run ragged, as the two of us were
usually pulling in a striper when another rod would go down. What a
blast. I was a tired puppy by the time we got back in.

Of course we couldn't keep any of the fish, but it was a fun day of
fishing. This was about twelve years ago, but I'm sure his boat is as
immaculate now as it was then.

Sure am glad you had a good time. Couldn't think of a nicer guy to
have it with either.

I had a great time in Winston-Salem playing golf with my brother. I
didn't shoot worth beans, and the weather was atrocious a couple days.
But what the hey. The camaraderie was super.
I'm playing Renditions today.


Never played it. Hope you shot well and enjoyed the day. It was a
little on the warm side, but otherwise beautiful - especially if you
like pollen!


The pollen didn't bother me, the heat was a shocker for so early in the
season. I just kept drinking Gatorade. The course isn't as well
maintained as my local muni. Amen Corner is fun and TPC Sawgrass' #17 is
fun too. Would I pay that much to play it again, no.


I'm not sure why people pay so much money to play fancy golf courses,
other than to say they did it. International Golf Club is a beautiful
course and charges about $100 for a senior on a Tuesday afternoon
after 2:30.

I enjoy the game just as much playing at the county course, Greendale,
just down the road for $17.

Once you're in the woods looking for a ball, all courses look the
same!
