[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2559337, member: 115658"] And yet another yote episode: Fishing for stripers is real good on an outgoing flood tide. Just get there when tide crests and start casting. Wifey & I had finished breakfast and arrived at the south end of the inlet that drained a huge marsh into Cape Cod Bay. The tide range is 7-8 feet at that point - lots of fast moving water and eaties from probably 500 acres of tributaries & marshes covered by 2-3 feet of water at hi tide washing out. Caught my first stiper there at age 5 - not stong enough to reel them in so a put the pole over my shoulder & walked away from water uphill on beach dragging the bass hooked onto 36 pound test line. Now its graphite fly rods, weight forward line, kelvar backing with 20 lb mono between fly line & backing, & a variety of streamers tied on 1-2/0 hooks. We got our gear out, including lunch & soda & ice tea. Roast beef sandwiches, dijon mustard, mayo, lettuce tomatos, ice cold chunked melons, chips included. It smelled real good. As we headed down the beach towards the twin jetties I had a sense that we were being watched. About 100 yards down beach I looked back to see a yote following us just above the grass line. I missed my .22-.250 real bad. The yote kept its distance. We fished and caught 15-20 bass, none of them keepers (min length then 36 inches) & released them but we caught 4 good size plaice (legal size) that I filleted out. Scanning the grass line with 8X binocs I was able to pick out 2 pointy ears and a black shiny snout but the yote backed out when we passed. When we reached the parking lot, the yote was working on the plaice carcasses that we left, gulls were circling above. It would have liked the roasred beef better. Bear spray would have worked on the yote - Massachusetts is anti gun. [/QUOTE]
