Fish Hard Live Long Hoodies
Hoodies are in! $39.99 - Heavywieght Cotton Navy Blue - Warmer pocket on front.
Also - I've re-done my Montauk version - it used to have the intial "M" but now it has "MTK" so if you get a Montauk hoodie, you'll get it with the new logo.

Just got a Block Island version for Christmas Joe, quality product. Just a little suggestion, add a little script Block Island under the chest logo, My daughter asked me if I was "BI" lol.

Just be glad your daughter was curious if you were bisexual, and not bi-curious herself.
On Block Island, the Fish Hard tees and stickers have transcended the fishing community and are now popular just as a cool sticker or tee shirt. Two years ago, I saw someone who had a black Mercedes G55 with no other stickers other than a Fish Hard BI version sticker on it - that's the coolest car I've yet to see with a Fish Hard sticker.
Wear it in good health and thank you for the business.

Obviously, Joe you failed to notice the Craftymobile the last time I stopped by - undoubtedly one of the sharpest looking fish-wagons in RI...

Besides, that G55 has probably been in a repo lot since last summer - with any luck some of the shpaccones and poseurs are gonna get flushed off the Island as the economy shakes out the chaff...

To tell ya the truth, I knew the Island was swirling around the drain a long time ago when I saw an advertisement for a bunch of over-priced lawn furniture by Martha Stewart called "The Block Island Collection"...

It sure ain't the same place it used to be...socially anyway.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

An island without a golf course is never going to be as popular an island with one. Block Island was popular in the 90’s as place where people from the Hamptons would go with their mistresses. The decline of hedge fund money has definitely driven down the property values - you can get a house well under a million now.
I was at a wedding on Martha's Vineyard once and the caterers were remarking how the event was very low on the social scale. They were engaging in this conversation while I was in the buffet line along with other guests. I politely inquired if the event would be considered socially above the wedding of two gay caterers?
But the social strata of any given destination is of little concern to Joe. I like Block Island even though I've encountered the most impolite people there. The beauty of being a miscreant is that the one's position within society does not enter into the equation when evaluating where to go - there's a certain freedom that comes when one realizes they can't be more of an outcast than a complete outcast.
