Just wanted to post a hello to everyone. Hung out for a bit at last years crabbing event at Doran and was at Albion this year (fun times). Have a family member on here that is far more active than I am - I'm really good at lurking and not posting.

Have had a chance to meet a few of you guys already - and even received some help out at HMB to retrieve some items when things got a bit funky.

And as the title says - new to it all - fishing and kayaking. But love the ocean and feel at home out there so hopefully i get a free pass for some dumb mistakes along the way as long as I don't put anyone in harms way!

- Gary
