Kudos for taking the time out of your fishing to help those guys out! They were lucky you were within visual range. Were they rowing, or had their motor quit?

30 gallons (240 pounds) might not sound like much, but remember that the water is going to pool up in the stern of a small boat, where the freeboard is already minimum, and may make it hard to stand back there to get the motor going.

Enough doom-and-gloom, though. Hope you have a great day up there, and hope you have the kind of success Dogfish has been having. I'll be at Humpy Hollow with my dad and my 6-year old.

Regards.
