    Grayton fishing

    there are plenty of 'holes' in the bay where fishes of all types seem to congregate and not only spash your boat all over with fresh water, but run the motor for long enough to get *all* the salt water out or once you get it home it'll be like towing a brick until the impeller breaks off...
