So when Harry used a sock puppet to discuss his boat, and it was found the
sock puppet used the exact same IP as Harry, you just thought Harry was
playing around. Ok I can understand your position.

Don,
Do you honestly believe Harry has a Lobster Boat?

Got a boat, Hertvik? No? Figures. Why are you here? You're not a boater,
and you'll never own a substantial boat.

Sorry, don't own any trailers of that sort, or campers. Only own a boat
trailer and a little tractor-cart trailer.

Asphalt driveways are built on a gravel base, ****-for-brains.



And these 'yahoos' wonder why you don't post a picture of the lobster
boat. Give 'em nothing & take 'em nowhere!



He says he does and I have no reason to believe otherwise.
Back when it was being built in Maine, it was obvious he knew quite a bit
about this style of boat, although I couldn't get him to admit that style
of inshore fishery boat (Cape Islander)originated on Cape Sable Island,
Nova Scotia and those tricky Yankees 'borrowed' the design for their
'lobster boats'.

'Fill fall apart' ???? Is this some kind of reserve USMC lingo?

How can you be a boater without one? An occasional ride on someone
else's boat makes you one? Well, if that's the case, most people are
boaters.


25 years of boat ownership with a temporary lack of boat ownership, combined
with regular boating trips on the Lake makes me a boater. That is how.


Make up a story about a boat you bought. Don't display any pictures of it. Then
make up stories about trips you take on it. Simple.

John, can you read? He said the boat kept moving, so maybe he found a
school. Did you SEE that? Also note that you stated that their weren't
any croaker being caught in Herring Bay. Notice now, read CAREFULLY.
Harry said he fished around the Lady Hooker THEN WENT TO HERRING BAY.
Now, remember, your exclusive problem with Harry's post was that there
were no croaker in Herring Bay. You posted on Tidalfish, and not ONE
SINGLE PERSON has said anything like that. Next time you call your
buddy and tell him to post to the message negatively, get it right at
least!!!



Actually, a little geography lesson is important here. Herring Bay is
part of Chesapeake Bay. It basically is a several mile wide area of
Chesapeake Bay whose main feature, I suppose, is Deale, MD, where
Herring keeps his boat. Herring Bay is not sharply defined. Herring Bay
itself is fairly shallow and as you exit it, Chesapeake Bay itself
gradually gets deeper.

When I saw the Lady Hooker, a substantial "head boat," it was well
outside of Herring Bay, but in the general vicinity of it. The head boat
was crowded, and the few times I looked over to it to see if there was
any action where it was, I saw no bent rods. Several of the boats in my
immediate area were catching pinfish and croakers. We also saw a few
very large rays swimming about.


The reality is, Herring ain't much of a fisherman. He seems to engage in
only two aspects of the game...dragging heavy metal baits behind his
boat, and dropping worms on the bottom, and keeps doing the same things,
over and over and over and over and over. Well, if you drag baits long
enough, sooner or later you will snag a fish.

When I see a bunch of guys trolling, I'll get in the area but out of the
traffic pattern, and liveline a pinfish or large shiner or other
baitfish. I'll usually get the hit I want, and it sure as hell beats
trolling.

The reality is that you didn't see a croaker!

Well if you happen to find your way to the Bay over the weekend, stop in
for a cocktail :-)

Now, how in the hell would you know that? What an ignorant statement.
You have no facts to back up such a wild claim. Grow up.

Don,
It was about 2 yrs ago. He made a post from his sock puppet "a lurker in
rec.boats". They went on to have a conversation about his boat, where the
sock puppet saw his boat and the restaurant they both ate in, where they
filled up with gas etc.

Someone then noticed that the only other time the sock puppet made a post
was in alt.test. Someone else noticed that the IP from the sock puppet and
Harry's IP were one and the same.

Wow. Someone caught two croakers out by #83 on Monday evening. He goes by the
nickname 'NoBarbs', and strangely enough, he became a Tidalfish member on
Tuesday, the 28th of June!

Isn't it strange that we would be having this discussion about croaker catching
(or not) and someone would join Tidalfish, happen across my post, and just
happen to catch two croaker out by #83, which is just outside Herring Bay!

What is even more coincidental is that the new member would have the same email
as your old one!!
