Hey Guys!
I just thought that since the boating season will be kicking off shortly it would be nice to have a list of members with boats that are willing to take other shorebound members out on the water for some boat fishing....fresh and/or salt.
Boaters please list your boat specs and areas/type of fishing you do.
Don P. -AVID saltwater fisherman home based at the Mouth of the CT River who grew up fishing the Great lakes freshwater scene. I would like to get back into more freshwater fishing, but my season generally consists of ~95% Saltwater and ~5% Freshwater. I usually fish from 2 of my 5 boats. -be happy to take any member out on one of my boats -20' Aquasport Center Console Professional with 175 Mercury outboard -14' Starcraft Seafarer rowboat with 6, 15, or 20hp outboards.
I generally post MANY open seats aboard my boat. I generally fish 3+ days a week from ~April-Nov.

What are you trying to push here Don? Most of you know how I am with spots on the boat many times but the problem is most of my trips are about an hour or two notice. I have even been known to jump from one boat to another, big to small or the opposite. It is hard for me to pre-plan at this point but if I sell the Our Freedom I will change things drasticaly.
For the rest of you, If I put up a Partners post in the summer, jump on it and you won't regret it. Some of the guys can already confirm that.
By the way Don, Once you have admitted to fishing that much in salt water you will never go back to fresh water. Throw away the passifier and give up the bait fish.
Fishing is not a matter of life or death. It's more important than that.
Took a bunch of guy's out last year, this year will be no different. I will be starting a new job very soon, will have to work sundays BUT I will have off every thur/fri/sat...Yeah baby YEAH! No crowded launches, no millions of boats mid week on the "spots"...I'm pumped!
I will post when I have open seats...first come first served!

I have a 16' 50 H.P. Crestliner Aluminum bass boat. I like to fish the Ct. river around the southern end, but will travel to lakes. The boat is not good in saltwater. Most of the time I'm looking for someone to partner up with.

I've got an 18' Sea Pro CC w/88HP Evinrude and 14' aluminum w/5HP, and am planning to experiment heavily with tube&worm, trolling and flats casting in and around New Haven Harbor this year. With all the 'experts' around Clinton, I hope to have some spots to share as well.
I expect to post open 'seats' with little notice as well, but perhaps I can get my act together to be a bit more proactive. (yeah right)...
I'm looking forward to a great season both in the boat and from shore. The West Haven sandbar is a great spot for schoolies and the elusive weakfish.
