You don't happen to have that study for us to read? I usually do not ask questions asking for a data source like that as it sounds confrontational. But it’s not meant to be. Reading the source material can be important.

Captain Paul Risi once mentioned to me when I asked if there was any data on mortality rate of fish caught and released. He replied "Between five percent and fifteen percent. Most fisheries use a number around ten percent. Again, here education goes a long way. People who dig for their hooks on...

Fishing the Long Island Sound and sometimes Moriches for Fluke. Anyone use these with any success? https://www.b2squid.com/product/u3-3...-squid-bodies/ Most of my teasers are the usual hair type. So, just asking. Also, do you feel they work better in the begining of the season (May / June)...

I would call Jeff’s Marine Electronics. I needed help a few times and I was looking for someone. As luck would have it, Captain Jeff Roye was close to me. I called him up and set up and appointment. Captain Jeff did a great job. He installed my Garmin EchoMap as I requested. Then he hooked it...

That means all the internal organs, liver, lungs,and other gooey things are in that blender mix! Guess it just adds to the flavor.

Green crabs in the blender? Still not sure. I might try it.

The weather, especially on the weekends, has not been great. A lot of wind has kept me from fishing on my boat. I have caught over 40 fluke. But zero keepers. A friend had similar experience on the south shore I have not caught Mackerel in the Long Island Sound in many years. This year, maybe...

I am the same age and I use a UV shirt. I purchased two, one loose, one tight. The loose one feels hot in the sun. The tight one, believe it or not, feels cooler. I think it evaporates sweat better. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004I44IS4?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1&psc=1 I would still...

Yes, you did. Thank you!!

I wnet through Shore Line Insurance. The father and son are big fisherman. I agree with Chinacat. My boat has an agreed on value. The other good thing about Progressive is they include towing insurance . That saves me the Sea Tow fee.

I use Progressive.

How did over loading cause a fire?

Thanks. I was thinking salt water. Maybe its me, but after rain and all the road runoff I thought it might throw off the bite. Thanks for the info.
