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

-
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.
