| 235.1 | the bigger theory of fishing... | TFH::TODD | | Tue Dec 01 1992 08:34 | 11 |

Tell him if he wants to find fish much bigger than 40"/45lbs.
He is not going to need a new rod, he'll need a new bazooka
to get into larger fish territory.
Big Daddy Keepers of the 50-75lbs. range are a prize catch rarely
caught from shore.
Not if he could get to the eastern end of chappaquidick island...

While at the Cape over this Holiday weekend my brother-in-law took
me pond fishing. He let me borrow some wadders which was nice of
him. What wasn't so nice was him not telling me untill after I'm
waist deep in the H2O that there "may" be a leak in them. The leak
was around the crotch area....and yes it was a H2O leak that filled
my left leg and boot of the wadders. I squished/squashed my way
to 3 ponds during the mid morning/early pm Friday with my socks
creaping down to my toes with one side flooded. There was an inch
of H20 in that left boot when I took them off...Brrrrrr.
BUT I managed to catch a small Brown Trout at pond #1 and a small
mouth bass (or was that a yellow perch? Alternating green/yellow
stripes) at pond #2 and zip at pond #3. It was a nice day and fun
catching (and releasing) those "little" creatures on a borrowed rod.
Fri/Sat/Sun were all nice day's. Mild winds/partly sunny.
The ocean was dead calm all weekend. Didn't see many boats out
there looking at Monomoy Island from Harwichport area. I wished
I brought the "FishTeaser" to at least go for a boat ride.
As expected my brother-in-law had his boat in his driveway waitin
for next season (just like the "FishTeaser").....Oh well.

Tell him he's already used up his Striper luck for this lifetime!
Actually, the Cape is probably one of the best spots there is to look
for jumbo Stripers from shore. A good example of this would be the
73 lber. caught a few years back. Not sure if it still is, but at the
time it was the biggest Striper ever caught from the beach. If anyone
has the interest to look it up I think his name is Tony Stetzko (sp??).
It was caught in the Nov/Dec timeframe in the Pochet area of Nauset
Beach. The original write up of it said he had gotten SEVERAL Stripers
over 50lbs. that week!!! She hit a (Greg Smith will like this!) black
FLY teaser fished in front of a live eel! Also, the original account
said that during the fight he saw some headlights coming down the beach
and he actually let his line go slack so the people driving by wouldn't
know he had a fish on!!! Yikes!!!

| 235.5 | Pochet is _the_ place! | GIAMEM::J_AMBERSON | | Tue Dec 01 1992 15:27 | 12 |
| Ah Pochet! If your on Pochet beach and look up towards "the bridge"
the house on the hill to the left of the bridge is my Dad's! I caught
my first striper off Pochet when I was 8. My Mom was sitting on the
beach and I went down to watch a guy fishing. His name was MacReed and
he had a load of stripers that he had already caught. He cast out the
sea worm for me and I caught my first striper. I then dragged the fish
up the beach to show Mom. Later I got to show it to my Grandfather and
Grandmother. What memories. Trivia question. Does anyone know who
MacReed was??? This all took place back in 1964. My Dad still lives
in Pochet and we still go to the beach there and fish there!
