headed back down to Harkers....

hey fellahs, thought i'd drop-in again and say hello.

lil' trip report....

i was fortunate enough to spend november 1-10 down east on harkers island,
cackalacky.... chasin' albies.

on the fly, i don't think there is a more adrenaline pumping experience then
the initial one minute or so run the lil' tunnys provide the long rodder
..... it is incredibly awesome. than it's all meat and potatoes....
crank-run-crank-run-crank... finally, you purchase the fly line back on the
reel and crank some more..... 10 or so minutes after the take, you reach
over and tail the fish, haul him into the boat, and release him with a
headfirst thrust (so oxygen rakes his gills and empowers him) back into the
sea to see what may well be, pound for pound, the most exciting sal****er
fly angling experience a man can enjoy.

it's addictive and ... well, albie headed back down to harkers after turkey
day.

again, long time fellahs.... hope all is well with all you surly bastids ;-)

jesus, i thought maybe we would read something about a ranger from
dan''l boone refuge having come across bleached bones, an empty pint bottle
of j. w. dant, and a pair of rotted green hip boots at the bottom of a
gorge above sassafrass creek. marie would be, of course, inconsolable...

sure can be pretty about dawn around the shackleford banks, doncha
think?

Hey Waldo,

They just look like fast, tough fish.

Jeff's been trying to get me out there to do some sal****er fishing.
Maybe I need to make some time.
