Sweetie!!!

So Chris, I grew up on Long Island in the 60s around Port Jeff. The draggers would catch Blackfish incidentally. You could buy then off the dock or in the local fish store for anywhere from 20 to 30 cents a pound. I clammed with a guy that fished for blackfish and he told me how edible they...

Gregg: Fished the second meadow on Slough Creek 20 years ago, had my reel and bear bells and had an amazing fly fishing experience in the broad meadow and towards the upper end of the meadow. Thanks so much for the pictures. Brings back great memories. Keep those cards and pictures coming.

Steve: Great artwork with the bird. Brings back so many memories of the North Shore. The old guys all used that cork.

Dwight: Agree. I have re-subscribed after letting it go many, many years ago. The only problem is that there are so many articles I want to read that I cannot possibly keep up. I am four issues behind. Always try Terry Wieland (sp?) on guns and recently there were two great articles about...

Steve: that is one sweet little tricolor. Great face. Have a great time.

Lou: Great Fly Tying bench. If I could post a pix, I would show you mine; Greg and Lou: interesting how we (or I do) go in and out of fly tying. I will tie for a year or two, then retire, then start it up again. I have not tied since 2009 when we had a great flying ant appearance on the...

Jeff: Of course.

Jeff: What a victory for the environment, the brook trout and, of course, present and future sportsmen. Thank you for your efforts.

Pat: Thanks for reposting. I joined since this posting and would have otherwise missed it. What an amazing group of skiffs. Need a historian, and curator. What a display they would make. Thanks again.

Paul: Great pictures with great definition on a gunners' day with that smoking wind--I assume out of the west or north. Thanks so much.

A recent e-mail from my friend Keith Dolbeck about scale-model duckboats brought back this memory from September 1966. I was 17, and engaged in all things duck hunting.  I lived on the North Shore of Long Island in New York. My friend Jack and I had hunted the last year on our own walking into...

Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed them all.

Actually, I was and noticed all the waterfowl on the pond(s) and couldn't really id them on tv-saw more birds on that golf course than we saw all year up here.

Craig: Thanks for the followup. Will return to it during the "slumber" as you correctly put it, to get me in tune for October. Once again, great pics of the salt marsh. JCW

Pete: Terrific. Keep those e-mails and pics coming!! Love to visit areas vicariously. Thanks. JCW

Craig: Agree with Al and SJS and all others, your season is a privilege for all of us and your pics of the salt marsh bring back so many great memories.

Colin: Thank you. Great pics. Keeps those cards and pics coming till the bitter end.

Happy New Year; agree with all sentiments; season over getting ready for the long winter nap.
