Fishing, with me, has always been an excuse to drink in the daytime.

The only way to stop this senseless waste of taxpayer money is to send the future Nobel Prize Winners a bill for the costs.

I say hit 'em where it hurts- smack 'em in the pocketbook. They will either get the message or at least have their priorities straightened out for them. And we all won't have to belly up for their stupidity.

We were fishing monster ledge one time when a boat pulled up to us and asked which way to Point Pleasant. Didn’t even have a compass and I don’t think they had enough fuel either. Never heard anything about them, but we could see the boat heading south west. Thinking Cape May.
