CRANKY NORTHERNERS THREAD
 

Today as I was getting read for work I saw the beginning of all that bad weather that you guys up north have to deal with each year. Plus I have noticed that you northern guys get really really CRANKY starting about now when you have to winterize your boats and are forced to forget about being on the water ALL WINTER LONG. SOOOOOOO I thought I would give you your own thread to vent your FRUSTRATIONS until spring time comes again.

Matter of fact I think I will post I picture to cheer you guys up a little.

sorry about you guys w the thermometers that read lower than 70 deg.
hey ikan the tuna bite is getting started early we had a charter come in with 1300 #s and there were alot of 100 plus big eye yellowfin. the trip ended a day early due to no space in the fish boxes.
any body interested in tuna fishing on the gulf coast this winter let me know. a good friend is trying to put some charters together to midnight lump. the boat is a 31 blackfin. they will be fishing out of either venice or fouchon, la

Hey,

Up here in Northern NJ we are still waiting for the best fishing of the year to develop. The bass should be getting ready for their early Nov to mid Dec big push and then we got the best fishing of all, Blackfishing, which starts on Nov 15 and can be good until mid to late January.

Maybe after all this is done I will winterize my SeaCraft.

If you are really nuts you can then go sea bass fishing 60 to 90 miles off shore from Jan through early March (then the cycle starts up again).

Re: CRANKY NORTHERNERS THREAD
 

Thank God for winter! This is the only time of year we can actually work on these boats. Upgrades and deferred maintainence are just some of fun we get to enjoy.

Re: CRANKY NORTHERNERS THREAD

That person has a standing invite but I think he likes wearing shorts and t-shirts too much for the Winter climate here (and I spend the Summers in his neighborhood!).

Re: CRANKY NORTHERNERS THREAD
 

OK I thought you northern guys needed a little pick me up since the temp is getting a little colder up there.

Fellow-Ship,

Not sure if these pics are helping? I enjoy looking at them, but still feel cranky :D

But thats why ice hockey started in the North. Nothing like lacing them up and hacking others with a stick a few nights a week. Then stand out in sub temps drinking beers til the am in the parking lot waiting for the cops to say "go home". :D

One guy even brings the grill, this keeps the cops from getting cranky! :rolleyes:

Florida is great isn't it? Took the family out on the boat on Sun. @ Sunset when it was 80 degrees out. Sunset cruises this time of year kick. :D
