The Fish are Here!!

At least the herring are. Went to the Brewster herring run this weekend and holy crap they were thick. I’ve never seen them this thick, and heard that some of the other runs were the same. I guess the ban has been working and pretty sweet to see. Not as sweet as it would have been to be there last year when my brothers kiddo fell face first into the big pool at top of the run (and was unfazed in typical Brado fashion).

Either way, great to see and a few Headhunt veterans down south - Ben in Westport - and Tria in RI – have already landed some schoolies, so it’s showtime. Getting the shirts ready – need to make them epic (and more than a few hours before the tourney so we can make sure there aren’t any screw ups – this time). If anyone has ideas on images, slogans, etc. let us know – but I’ve contacted our old designer and am going to just have him draw up the Burnie brothers brawling for the back image – if it will fit (sound of high fives).

Lastly, what the deuce is going on with the new Chatham cut? Is it real? My city living ass has seen some pics, but then heard some rumors that it wasn’t passable – then heard the opposite. What is the real story? Could be a game changer for the summer.

Will start posting more leading up to the tourney, but send in any blogs you want posted and start spreading the word – we need some prizes in a big way this year since we lost our Puma hook up and are working on reels again but could use some help if anyone has any good connections, or names, we should reach out to.

After receiving some spam in my in-box from Sean I decided to stop in and see if the amateur journalism written here had been updated. Much to my amazement the Burkes have posted a video showing them looking at fish and not catching them... which seems quite common. Then reading a little bit of the Ron Borges-esque column I see that I am up for being featured on the shirt. I cant speak for my sasquatchian brother but I am honored. Even though it has taken too long for this to happen I am very impressed the Burkes have finally realized how important and valuable I am to this tournament. I am though feeling a little bummed out that not too many people except for my fishing partner The Captain have chimed in. No Petey, Dangler or many of the other loud mouths like myself. Maybe this year will be a quiet tournament.....or we can be real fisher man and have the charter captains throwing people overboard for losing fish, beers before,during and after or someone losing a lower torso ala Quint. The rest of the field can suck it......the first shot over the bow has been fired!

Hey, Sports Dbag is back and talking/taking shits as usual. Can't wait to get your $$ again this year and watch you post more pictures of yourself holding 8 lb bluefish, while your brother walks away with the trophy. We all know he should go on the shirt. We all know he is the better angler, better brother, and better all around person.

Side note, let us know when you want to get out on the Jackal early this season and do some pre-fishing/plotting - boat goes in the water next week and Sean/I will be going out soon if you want to take a spin, and learn something.

Ryan Its ok that you bash me yet want me on youre boat. I wont tell anyone that you guys need help from me and my built in fish finder. If you do want me on the boat I require to be picked up, in the style of aincent kings in egypt. You will need women to feed me grapes and massive amounts of Dj's buffalo chicken sandwiches.

Side note..... Im definitly game to go fishing with you boys. Just give me a heads up! Im sure one of you two clowns can either call me or text.

Don't get your hopes up Sports Bag. The Headhunt is generally the Burke Boys one and only fishing trip of the year. "Pre-fishing".......that's funny.

Corduroy here... internet is spotty here in Bimini, but right now we are sitting in 2nd place for the IBFA World Championships with 2 days left. Kinda tough thinking about competing with the Burkes and the Bag in July with about 20 other tournaments before then, but I figured I would pop in and say hello anyway. Team Dangler did have a web conference the other night and we will in fact be fishing the Headhunt this year. We will also be taking it seriously this year. No more screwing around. In years past in order to level the playing fields with you buffoons we have used fresh water gear... intentionally frayed leaders... blindfolds... and dynamite. Not this year. This year we take it seriously.

I glad to see that Corduroy is starting to think of us again. That is when we know the summer of salami is fast upon us.

I apologize for the spam Jason and everyone else who is connected to my "old school" aol account that I only keep around for true umbrella policy type friends.

Watch out Benoit with your responses as you are a very new Headhunt team member. I did step on the boat in the water this past weekend and that is a start. I am off to coach little again right now and my wife is heading to San Antonio on Friday for a week so that should make for some great fishing opportunities.

I see that weakfish are being caught in decent numbers in stage harbor.

Good for them! Go Bruins!

Ladybird Burke, her sister and Dbag,
Glad to see you survived the winter. Its been busy lately for myself doing Angelina Jolies' double mastectomy, helping Jim Breyer pick more IPO winners, Proving the boson higgs particle does indeed exist and banging russian smokeshow Ekaterina Rybolovleva whenever I feel like it. Having traveled the globe lately I havent had much time to fish but I guess that should give the Burkes a fighting chance... well maybe not; but anyways Harry and Storm the Swedish women's ski team said thank you from the bottom of their @#$$%^&* for the courtesy moustache rides you guys gave them last week. They were all smiles.

Sports bag I put the EBT card in the mail you sent me as a gift for giving you casting lessons. No worries my man no worries. I give you credit at least you reached for help unlike the others who cower in Team Danglers glory. You can buy me Miller Lites anytime.
I'd love to sit here and scribe more literary gems but I have to go balls deep with two of my favorites, Jessica Alba and Jennifer Love Hewitt. They are waiting in the Chatham palace hot tub having a scissor fight as I type. Remember boys it will stretch a mile before it will tear an inch.... God the bliss they are about to receive. I heard a rumor Harry and the good Reverend were dirtying the Playboy mansion with many kittiess. Bravo gentlemen Bravo.
Tomorrow after fixing the national debt issue Ill probably go cast a line with Hemingway's original 6 weight that was left to me in his will. We are back and as formidable as ever. Caveat Emptor BITCHES!!
