Yes, she was....I loved that movie although it was so sad.

Have you read Linda's books. She's not a professional writer, but her books are great...interesting and insightful about fishing

If I can find the book...I can send it to you...my brother wrote it...called the Doryman's Reflection. My brother has done everything from fishing with Cape May, NJ, to Alaska, California & Maine. He knows Linda Greenlaw & she is quoted in his book.

Kathy, I can send you the book if you want...my brother has over 25 yrs fishing experience, lobsters, etc.

We won't know for sure what our price will be until we start fishing. There are a few rumors going around saying it may be a bit better, time will tell I guess..
