Horrible Day in Hopedale

[Mediumheavyaction6'6]

Fritz 20 and I decided to make a trip to Hopedale today to try our hand at some trout. He nor I got the memo that the front was not all the way through the east side of the state this morning and boy did we pay for it. Got to the landing after swimming in along Hopedale Hwy. The guy at the launch laughed at us as we were the only people with a boat for the first half an hour this morning. The wind was blowing all of 30 mph when we first got on the water and the tide was ripping out. We fished every nook and cranny we could find that the water wasn't white capping. No matter how hard we tried we couldn't get a bite. We fished for almost 8 hours to no avail. This is my first but probably not my last scratch trip. Oh well, off to Point a la Hache tomorrow or maybe back to Hopedale. This just means I have waged war on the fish for tomorrow.
