The first large transplant of people came after hurricane Fredrick during the condo boom. How did my family end up here? My grandparents were from Italy,ended up in NY city had two sons and when my dad was of age joined the navy and was stationed at Barron Field in Foley. He told my mom how great it was down here so she moved. So I guess you could have called my parents out of towners in 1956.
Just funny its a 50/50 answer that will never end...as long as i got no one messing up my fishing or tangled up im good lol if i had to Bit$h about anything its the traffic on canal rd going to the pier lolQuote:

Oh yea,speeking of traffic, road construction is taking place from The Warf eastward to Hwy 161. They are doing it during the day time for now and will switch to nights on March 1st. Things will be bad enough with spring break going on, this will just add to the cluster.
Fort the most part the locals I have met are great people willing to help net or gaff a fish, give you fishing tips, or just have a friendly conversation. The only exception is the anti social inbreed that cursed and had a fit when I was fishing the end of the octi and not moving around the rail fast enough to suit him. He could have just as easily asked to go over my line rather than act a fool. The other one is a loudmouth blowhard who barks out orders like he owns the pier. I don't see him there anymore. Everyone else is good as gold and seem to put up with my googanish ways.
one thing I will add....if you make a mess.... clean it up....put your cut off line in the trash and if any other laying around pick it up too....I see many regulars on the way out stop and clean up the mess the night crew left behind,trash,paper,line if you use the cleaning tables, leave it better then you found it, don't leave it for the next guy.....
we all could use a little bend over practice, for our over sized mid section(bellies)
When I get rich I'm gonna move to Ohio and drive around all day 35mph in the left lane with my right turn signal on while looking out my left window and talking on my cell phone.Quote:
