Glad that you like it Rick!

Braised chicken thighs with stewed tomatoes, onion and artichoke hearts over pasta.

It's been over 4yrs since I was there last. Probably pales in comparison to years past.

I never bothered with fishing for lunkers in the trout parks. In fact only really fished the TP when the kids were big enough to fish them as well. So only in the last 12 to 15 yrs. I used to catch plenty of 18 to 24" brown trout and a few rainbows up to 22" well downstream of Montauk to keep me happy.

Congrats Seth on your Second place finish! I'm certain that you will break that 20" brown trout goal.

I asked my date to meet me at the gym. She didn't show up. I knew right then that we weren't going to work out 🤣 The CEO of IKEA was elected prime Minister of Sweden. He should have his cabinet together by the end of the weekend!🤣 Before I criticize a man I like to walk a mile in his shoes. That way when I do criticize him, I am a mile away and I have his shoes 🤣

Not for 2021 but some birds available for 2022. We were near the river looking for and finding a snowy owl. Lots of mallards and canvas back ducks. Also saw a small group (5 or 6) widgeon and a single lesser scaup.

Watched a Skyville Live concert with Gregg Allman on CMT. Was really good. Saw him 30+ yrs ago.

Anyone one else here hook a pelican? darn nuisance birds on some FL piers. No such thing as catch and release when they are around. The one I hooked dove and ate my bait.. I tried to get as close as I could without the bird flogging me with it's wings as I cut the line. He had at least 4 other fishing lines hanging from it's bill.

Never leave a cooler with dry ice in a closed car. The sumblimed CO2 can build up in the car making for a dangerous situation.

Feb 3, 1959 the day the music died with the plane crash that killed the Big Bopper, Ritchie Valens, and Buddy Holly.

Never ate there, but have fished behind it!

I'm a DMF bait Co prostaffer. Once done with the container I'll make a hat 🤣

Hunting gives fishing a run for it's money as well! Never tell your wife how much you spend getting those free meals 😅

Thanks @Dutch for the offer. We had our crash course last weekend here Maryland. We all graduated😅

those of us that a leaf blower challenged have to resort to just using a broom 😅

So I really like turkeys. I love the way the look, act smart and dumb, locally abundant or completely scarce. I love calling them and interacting with them whether that leads to a dead turkey or not (most of the time it doesn't 🙄). We get a few birds in the woodlot behind the house, typically a stray hen or two or maybe a gobbler sounding off in the woodlot. The big thrill last year were the big gobblers that showed up in our yard on Thanksgiving (of course could not hunt them then). Maryland has a three day winter turkey season. Of course this photo was taken the week prior to that season just cuz they Know 🤔! Best that i could tell these were all hens. Several got within 20 yds of the house milling around in the open grass area. (our deer blind is just in the lower left hand corner of the photo) I counted 23 birds in all. Since we hadn't been actively hunting due to COVID in the house there was no corn out there, but they scratched up a lot of leaves while milling around back there. Very fun to see!

A man walks into a doctor's office and goes up to the receptionist. She asks the man what he has. "Shingles" he responds. She hands him a clipboard and asks him to sit down and fill out the medical questionnaire. After he finishes the paperwork he is shown into an examination room. The Nurse comes in and aks what he has. "Shingles" he replies. She takes his vital readings and writes them down in his chart. She asks the man to strip down and put on a gown and wait for the doctor. The doctor arrives about 10 mins later. As the doctor is listening to this lungs and heart, she asks the man what brought him to the office. "Shingles" stated the man. The doctor asks where are the shingles? "Outside in my truck, where do you want them?!?" 🤣

They already have a cleaning station at Montauk. Why not one at BSSP? Maybe it's the meat jig lobbyists petitioning against a cleaning station😅

Hey we dealt with all that nonsense last weekend with the big Nor'easter. We ended up with about 5 inches with a forecast for 3 to 8 inches in our area. New England took it for the team with some spots getting over 2 ft of snow. Stay safe regardless on what may drop.

ICE ICE ICE ICE .... AHHHHHH😝

This is getting serious😉

Congrats Dave! Catching sculpin can get addictive 😉.

Dry run creek is such a special place. Only regret was that I got my daughter there only once.

I think that we all win if a whiny irrelevant Canadian rocker gets shut down 🤣
