Line In, from the Rogue's notes.

Life on the Assawoman, 5/26/2018.

   First time out. The elusive fluke. Hot spot has been the Thorofare. My neighbor, DP, and his Jet Fisher. We talked about love of the water. Being out on the water. Fishin' the local waters.  Wives were up front. probably talkin' clothes and Avon. Shiners, squid, and Gulp; baits of choice. Lines in. Trolling/drifting the thorofare. Watched the increasing school of boats. Moved here and there. Hooks were quiet. Lotta nibblin'. Them damn flounders humbled us this time around. Thinkin' back, I believe most of the nibbles were crabs chowin' down. Wife would argue the point, as wives do.

Ready 'n waitin'.

   DP, had caught his first keeper the other evening. 17 incher (16.6" is the 2018 limit). Called and asked if he should keep or throw. back. I said, "hell yeah, keep it!" Put in on ice for my return from a surf. My first fillet job. Didn't do bad thanks to a recent episode of Hooked on OC. Had 'em over for lunch over the weekend...baked flounder tacos. Good $hit! A new summer beer that paired well with the tacos. Another Narragansett brew...Fresh Catch, very befitting. A golden pour Blonde Ale that definitely maintains it's attraction as long as it's served lawn mower style... ice cold. Finger and a half, white head that disappeared fast. Thin lacing. Grainy aromas I associated with everyday lagers but with light grapefruit in the distance. Tasted of bready malt with a light 23 IBU, citrus bite in the finish. Sixer of 16 ounce cans at 4.2% ABV...can do a few. Rated a C+.
