hello beautiful Peacheads....it is such a pleasure coming to this site and reading all the wonderful posts! I LOVE LI fishing stories...Those fabulous Bay Scallops that would pinch your toes, and you gulp a big breathe of salt-air, dive under and grab'em before they swam away.....Catch enough, and throw them on the grill....Dinner...Next time ya'll are out Montauck way, take a peek at that terrible taxidermy job on the sharks head in Salivars Bar and Grill....It must still be there, though you cant really look at it and imagine the enormity of that sucker! I cant swear to the year...maybe 1963? 1964? I do know exactly how much that Great White weighed...4500lbs....I bet it still holds the world record for being caught on a hook..though Fishin Frank over there in Charlotte Harbor will argue till the Milkcow comes home, it wasnt..He's just jealous..I was there. That big boy was caught on a gigantic rod and reel, run with cable, not line, and a hook... Ill never forget Captain Mundis bring that fish in....I loved that crusty old Seaman.....I wonder if he's still around? Mitch? anyone? 4500 lbs of fish is so heavey, when they cranked it up, (upside down with its guts hanging out of its mouth.) it broke the huge rusty sea-chain, snapped through the dock like it was made of toothpicks, and slowly slid down into the water..folks screaming and yelling and runing every which way...all NY hell broke loose.....Here I was, fishing off the dock for baby Blues..a few ounces a piece..last day of vacation...and along comes The Cricket with the biggest fish Ive yet to see...Next time ya'll are out that way, PLEASE take a picture in front of that ole fish.. make me smile! Lil Kevin made me smile around 3am , couple days ago...He's such a great son..Courtney broke my heart last week..again....so to cheer me up, he stuck this huge Bull Redfish in my face.... 3, maybe 330 am....I guess you have to be a fisherman at heart to understand..All I know is, take a kid fishing ya'll..You will have a best friend for life....ESPN is in town for this weekends big (for Punta Gorda ) Redfish Tourny..but Kevin's trophy meant more to me, than the winners will to him, $ or no. Happy Birthday Derek! I love that child..He plays good , too...I wonder does he fish? Peaches, ya'll...Ca
