Spring fishing on the Cape

South Beach was not to be spared from the millions of stripers that
were swarming the Cape. A memory I shall not forget for a while was a
cloud of fish about two acres in size slowly heading my way. Bear in
mind that the name of the game on S. Beach is to try to spot one to a
few fish as far away as possible. Such a large school is almost in
your mind's blind spot and does not register right away.
Instinctively I backed away, cheap movie style, and got to about
three inches below knee level when the school reached the point I was
standing. The lead fish broke around me but the followers did not
notice. Over a period of ten minutes this school passed me and I had
four fish, all more than 23" but not keepers, from this school. Given
the time it took to pass I am guessing it was much larger than I
first thought, or it was going circles !!

That sounds like a real blast, Gary. Thanks for the TR.

When you feel like taking a break from the biggies and want to get into some
10-18" trout on some tailwaters, give me a holler. It would be good to see you
again.

.. . . which reminds me - I ran into George Adams a week or so ago, and he's not
half the man he used to be. ;-)

......from a svelte 226 to a super svelte 197. Hopefully another 15 or 20 to go
this fall.

Hell yes. We'll even show you the "secret spot".

Thanks Tim. I'll take you up on that. Likewise on my end, would be
great to get together. BTW, just got an email from the VT State
Bioligist for the Battenkill and apparently the important 7-9 inch
slot is doing well. I'll be trying to get up there in the next few
weeks to fish the trikes.

(You'll have to explain the G. Adams reference. I have only met him
once at a McDonalds in Ware along with Messrs., Reid, Tripper,
LaCourse & Gula.)

Oddly enough, the only one of the bunch I haven't met is 'tripper (did I just
put "oddly" and "'tripper" in the same sentence?).

Mr. Adams has dumped a bunch of weight and can now be mistaken for Robert
Redford, or one of those guys from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.

Well, yeah - but so have about a thousand people before you ;-)

Whoa! More than we needed to know!

I'm not sure how much of the Swift you've fished, but there are some sweet spots
well downstream from the C&R areas. I can free up a weekday afternoon with
little notice, and maybe we could get a few others to do the same. Smells like a
mini-clave; we'll call this one "Mass Appeal".

NJ George. S. Beach Diet???

Atkins for six weeks took 20 lbs off, and calorie counting since mid April
removed another 9. Looking to go back on the Atkins for a little while in the
fall, as I need to lose another 15/20.

Good for you, but I don't know how people do it. I tried
Atkins for a month and it was awful. I didn't have enough
gas in the tank to run 3 miles without hitting the wall.
I figured Atkins was for obese people who got obese by
sitting on the couch eating doughnuts and twinkies and who
wanted to lose weight by sitting on the couch and NOT
eating doughnuts and twinkies.

I need my carbs, and I don't mean just Budweiser. ;-)

I found just the opposite. I was working out a bit (cardio) while on the diet,
and maintained a good energy level. I think the trick is to eat enough fat to
keep the energy level up. Also, I was limiting myself to about 1500/1700
calories a day. It does get awful boring, though. I'm still sick of hard boiled
eggs and sugar free Jello.

I hope you're describing two separate dishes.
