I do not know about anyone else, but my pole is being tried right now. It is being tried because it is not getting out enough or even at all at this point. The kids, the yard, the boat prep, the blah blah has me getting prepared to fish but in the meantime I am not fishing. I have a sweet boat, a great location, great fishing grounds and ……………!@#$%^&*
Every year I come back to this tourney and wonder why I/we do it again? A lot of work for????
It is not a money making endeavor which is something I could use right now, getting out and about to promote the event is not my thing as people who know me understand very well, working with my bro and pops is not always easy, and social events in general are often not my gig.
Sitting here right now trying to figure out what to type helps me realize why I/we do this tourney even though it can sometimes suck setting it up. I do the headhunt mainly because it helps make me fish and think about fishing and talk about fishing and think about getting out on our boat and fishing which is something that I love. Fishing is something that I love but it is also something that I could too easily lose in my quest to take care of so much other stuff that we all know, but often forget, will never be fully conquered or go away.
IN OTHER WORD!!!@#$% I need to get out fishing and thinking about this dam tourney is helping me get back to doing my best to get out. It is now June and I have yet to catch a striper but there would be no way for me to catch one as I have yet to really go fishing for them other than a few random casts at random times from the most ridiculous spots at the worst times.
To sum my rant up – IT IS HEADHUNT TIME – Headhunt time for at least means it is striper fishing time out here in Harwich and on the Cape in general and the purpose and competition of the tourney gets me going with some important fishing priorities.
I need to pre-fish, prep, and….. …
I need to stop and just fish and have fun which is what I/we just want this tourney to be for us and others and I personally just want others to get into the “fun” but “no joke” competition of it all like I do.
I am wrapped up again this weekend but will get out on the water with a purpose asap and I will do so for the HeadHUNT if nothing else.
And I know that the headhunt keeps me from losing my focus on what I like to do and being able to fish for competition makes it all seem worthwhile kind of like it is a job even if it is only for one day. Our job is to try and win this thing and we are on the 7th year and we have never been able to win our own tourney even after coming so close numerous years.
I love that I am beginning to hate other local teams and starting to think about seeing what other teams may step up. The bay boats are still allowed, the charter boats are still allowed, and we are still keeping things open until keeping the game and the opp to win this thing wide open becomes a big problem.
It is starting to become go time for me at least and hopefully a few of you other Cape Cod fishermen out there.
Yours truly,
