OK the sight has grown quite large and some new members may not know who is who....Seeing as we are on the dawn of a new year lets all get aquainted/reaquainted...
I am the infamous Roccus,my given name is Joe, I fish the area surrounding the Merrimack river and plum island from the state of Massachusetts....
I was born into this world one snowy February night 49 years ago..
I grew up the son of a farmer and heavy equiptment operator,my mother was a seamstress, I grew up hunting and fishing, i shot my first buck at age 9... I am a life long mechanic and carpenter,if I cant fix it, I build it... I have NO knowledge of computers... I fake it! th_icon_loll.gif
I've been a lifelong Redsox fan, I became a Patriot fan about 15 years ago.
I am the father of 4 and grandfather of 2 lovely little girls, thanks to my son Joe, known on the board as JB24
My fishing began on the concord river where I caught hornd pout,eels and pickerel, I began trout fishing the streams with my dad by age 4.
As a teenager I fished for largemouth bass EVERY summer evening... until I discoverd stripers... by age 14 they became an obsession that has never waned all these years.. I think I've caught stripers just about every legal way there is to catch them.... tossing eels is still my favorite method.
In the winter I icefish, tie flies and make plugs , trout are my favorite targets through the ice, with smelt a close second...
I've met with and fish with some great people on this board, I'm sure there will be others.... now the rest of you know who I am!
