As
marvelous a technology as cell phones are they have yet to become
dependable for communication out here in Cross Sound and on the

of communication from boat to boat and boat to harbor. Many of the

conditions, cooperating in the often complex logistics of the
hook-and-line lifestyle, and for good old fashioned gossip when fishing
is slow
(chatter tends to drop off sharply when the bite is on!).
