My mother lives on Cape Cod, she's says there's a rumor going round that there's a movement to change the name to Cape Carp cause that all that's left to fish for in Nantucket Sound.

When I was young I use to pull my boat up to the sand bars that lined the rivers & beaches & just walk around picking up the scallops, the different types of clams, grab the crabs off the rocks, the shellfish were so plenty that to fish was to work. Now the river banks, beds & bars are void of all but a few mussels & hermit crabs, the eels have even vanished from the marshes.
