I had a male repeating "it's all about the birdies" on 6925 KHz USB at 1954 UTC. Very weak here, only about S1.

Yeah, the fishermen started immediately afterwards, but I actually am not sure this was related.

Heard here also at good level.  Sounded more like "It's all about the booty" here.  Obviously the shrimping is just a ruse to cover up their real intentions, to plunder the coast for pirate booty!

Again at 2047.
And again at 2126 with a brief QSO about alternate opinions and technical issues.

Thanks!

"Well, it's check-in time...4(?) fish caught...Zipper Lake Ice Fishing Tournament...details follow...it's all about the booty."

LOL and thanks!
