Forecast as of 11:28 am EDT on September 23, 2007
Chesapeake Bay From North Beach To Drum Point-
Chesapeake Bay From Drum Point To Smith Point-
This Afternoon
N winds 15 kt. Waves 3 ft.


From 7 to 10 AM today, the weather station on the Thomas Point
lighthouse was reporting winds between 15 and 22 knots, and gusts
to 22
knots.


Three foot waves of the kind we have around here do not make for
pleasant fishing.

Harry,
If the weather in the area you normally fish has 3 ft. waves, why
not change your fishing location to the leeward side or a island,
peninsula or go to one of the 10,000 coves in the Chesapeake Bay.

Even on my little lake it is common for wind to pick up and make
parts of the lake unpleasant, including some of my favorite spots.
If the weather is still nice, I just move to the leeward side of an
island and have a wonderful day on the lake.





Here's yet another of the many daily attacks from "Reggie Smithers",
a frequent rec.boats poster, and if you count them up, you will see
how little he adds here in boating/fishing content or interesting
reading.

Harry,
This is not an attack, it is friendly advice.


I have no interest in advice from you. Save yourself the time and what
little energy it takes, and don't offer me any.


Did you old lady yell at you today, Harry? Why are you attacking Reggie?

Well you were upset that you could not go fishing, I telling you
something all of us who use our boats do all the time.

Try this, Krause: Don't respond!

It was a nice day today, and the wind finally died down this afternoon.
I was just down at the marina, emptying out my minnow traps.

What do you use for bait? We used to use bread chunks when I was a
kid but I'm sure that has been replaced by something more hi tech.


Bits of dead crab, if available, otherwise, bits of corn meal balls held
together with peanut butter. Same bait I sometimes used for freshwater
catfish. It works. I put out two minnow traps last night, and have at
least 50 usable minnows today...and about 100 more that were too small.

Somewhere between your house and the water.

Got GPS?

Harry,
How is this a daily attack?
That's easy, you went after his transom.

How low (LT) can you go? Harry is very protective of his aft most
parts as well he should be.

We'll be in Chesapeake Bay for most of October and will be
strategically well positioned for confirming or denying reports of
extreme LT weather. I'll be on close look out for DLTPs (Distressed
Low Transom Parkers) and will take pictures of all sightings for
review by the group. Yo Ho Ho... :-)

Meanwhile today, off the mid New Jersey coast, 120 miles north east of
our LT hero, it was like a lake. People were bopping around in the
Atlantic Ocean with 13 ft Whalers like it was a walk in the park.

If it were still summer, it would have been one of the finest days of
the season. For late September, the weather was absolutely
spectacular.

Today was a georgeous day here also. I didn't get out, but spent half the
day at the local golf course. Beautiful weather. Can't wait for the new
boat to get here.
Gee - I spent the day clearing brush.

Where did I go wrong? :)


Where do I begin...

Ah - the joys of minnow traps.

I have a friend who uses blood bait for catfish.

Get's some monster golden minnows on that bait.

Speaking of GPS............When I picked up my buddy on Thursday I had my
TomTom One running as I had not been to his new house yet. He was so
impressed with it that he bought one when we got back to my house. ;-)

All a part of my diabolical plan to rule the world!!!

I have your GPS coordinates and I will now be able to control your
mind!!

MMMUUUAAAWWWAAAHHHHAAAAA!!!!

~note to self: Change name from tomtom to something less
identifiable.~
