This is from last Sunday.
I know that rock. I fell on that rock abt 6 or 8 years ago.
man nice!!!!!! nice chop also
hey the rock over your shoulder looks like herringchokers spot.......thats his rock
THAT would be a pretty QUIET day at that rock Handy
I've seen spray go 100' in the air from waves there.
DAMN!!!!!!!
What you don't see is to his right is an island about 150' from shore with a lighthouse on it. The water funnels into a narrow straight right there and there's a bit of current, that's what makes this spot so good. I've had my boat within 100' of where he took this picture. Off in the background is Long Sands. A great place to throw some plugs in some of the bowls and rock piles.
The day I fell on that rock I broke my custom rod in 3 pc and effed my neck up hard. I've had serious problems with arthritis in my neck ever since. I took a nasty whiplash injury there and touched my head on the rock when I went down. Just enough to say wtf did I ground out there or what.
I couldn't move my neck for over a month at the time. 2 xrays and a mri abt 3 months later.....
Another view from roughly where he was standing

Spot burn!!!!! Spot burn!!!! Spot burn!!!!! Ha! Ha! Ha! No fish in Maine? Congrats 66!!! Nice Maine striper ;D
Hey 66 next time your up this way shoot me a pm and we can get after them! ....... Do you mind wearing a blindfold? Lol :)
ya like nubble light has never been fished right? LOL
Lol don't know many pieces of water than haven't been fished a one point or another, in my younger days I have been know to swim across that channel to fish the front side of the island :wink:
hey thats beautiful.......yea that rip must be a sweet place to fish........nice pic both of the fish and the light house/channel.........oh!!!! lets not forget the rocks........damn salt that was one hell of a fall
I've fished the front side in my boat a whole bunch of times. It's a nice run down from Wells. Steep dropoffs there.
Yup great place to fish!.... Yeah Scott sounds like you really hit hard! Lucky it wasn't worse, got to have corkers up here and even then watch yourself
YUP! I didn't that day and told my son to be extra careful. 2 minutes later I went down. Legs went right out from under me. Straight back.
This place is hit very hard. Everyone goes there. I only fish it in heavy wind, rain and surf. When the rest stay home.
Oh I know 66 I was just messin' with Scott, why do you think I used to swim the channel, no one else was crazy enough to do it, and would have the front side to myself :) thank god it wasn't worse Scott, was it a couple years ago a fella died from mass I think on the rocks or a jetty in wells?
Not a prob. I wish we could take 2 vevicles up. She goes shopping I go fishing. I just wish the spot burn hadn't happened. Now everyone knows the fish was caught where all the tourists go in the nice weather. :o Though after that we had great weather for the rest of the week.
P.S. We gotta hook up one of these times.
No prob I'll come and get ya,hell maybe your Mrs and mine can go shopping and we can fish, only one prob I see my women like to fish more than shop lol :wink:
that's my home turf
Well Glen, guess you'll have to fish too!! :)
time is a problem it seam this yr something always happens when I want to go
Brother dont I hear ya! It's always something
My lil woman is a SHOPPER!!! No doubt. Though she will cast a line on occasion.
For the Spot Burn. The Spot is off the right side of Shortsands. We had permisson to fish there.
That's why some times it's nice to ask to fish.
