Thanks, Bry - I've been trying to figure out what I should be looking at for a reel - Newell's come up a few times -
I was using my 500 Jigmaster w/30 mono on it when I got a little...uh... overconfidant... 
I was talking to Alberto at the EBA show about his Saltiga Surf - which was damned nice - but I think I oughta look for something else before putting $400+ into a convench -
If you're at the meeting tonite I'll talk to ya about it - |

Break 49.9lbs 
Learn not to laugh or snicker while watching Numbskull try to cast to breaking fish in the canal. 
Carry more wetnaps for stifftip when he has the effects of Montezuma's revenge in my boat (I can't bear to hear him screaming in pain as he walks into the dunes and all I have to offer him are alcohol wipes)  |
Why even try.........

No more working on my 3 day weekends.

Fish after work (so close, I can't believe I didn't go last year...Winthrop is 3 minutes away).

Don't worry. I'll rub it in when you're not there.

Pffft...you're dead. As the father of twins (16 yo in February) I can tell you with absolute confidence that you are done for the year, maybe three depending on the wife........
As for my goals;
More tunas, and be back at the dock by 10AM
More night fishing on the boat
A productive trip to Cuttyhunk with the Crew this time around
Block Island with some guys in the fall
See as many sunrises as possible on the boat livelining bunker |

2. find new holes closer to home.
3. give togging a go.
4. beat the 30# mark from the kayak.
