Piscine Prognostication

We've got all of our fishing tackle organized as hell, and have big plans to tune up all of the loose ends on the WhaleEye.

Got a call this morning from Patrick Piscatelli telling me of his fishing success down on the Cape this weekend. The piscine aficionado landed some blues and schoolie stripers, and was right at the verge of his enthusiasm transforming into bravado. Not that I can blame him. If I caught Blues and Stripers this early in the season, I'd be bragging my ass off.

Tomorrow, I'm taking the CEO of a promising wireless startup in the public safety networks sector to lunch at the Boston Yacht Club. I thought I might impress him with the ambiance of Marblehead Harbor, but it appears that he lives on the Monterrey Peninsula in California, which is probably the most spectacular ocean venue that I've yet seen.
~
So I'll have to find another way to impress him. Maybe with fishing stories.

Anyway.... I predict the best fishing season ever this year. Tuna, Stipers, Blues and Lobster. Not necessarily in that order.

I'm infantry when it comes to hunting fish this time of year. It was primal and raw, wading into the water and getting my Nam face going against Charlie Striper and Ho Chi Bluefish. They knew the wrath of my Ugly Stick and speak of it to their young.

Sounds like a job for Rob Jones. The public safety field is his back yard. Your CEO chappy is jonesing for Jonesy!
