    It's also free parking only on weekdays, I think, if you're a senior. Just show your drivers license at the parking field toll booth

    Hurricane Awareness

    If you've watched past hurricanes, almost all of them die out to no worse than a Cat 1 when they reach us. The sea water isn't warm enough to support a CAT 2 or 3. Hurricanes require a surface sea water temp of somewhere around 80 or better to develop that far. Right now, the water temp...

    Classic Cars

    I'll take the Trans Am. I had the 72 Formula 455, very similar to the TA but with different hood scoops. That car was a beast. 0 to 60 in 5.something and a top speed of 162 in 4th gear. But then again, I was a lad of 24 years old so what did I know of fear.

    Another Reason To Stay Away From Car Dealers

    I had that problem with the oil plug. Dealer didn't put on a crush gasket and then over-tightened it. I needed an impact wrench to get it loose. Luckily nothing was stripped.

    UPDATED JULY 6, 2025 New Angler App

    Very nice app. Thanks for it. Is there a way to change the date to a future date? It would be helpful in planning future trips around the tides.

    Back yard critters

    If you'd like some more rabbits, I have 2 families living here. One under my deck and the other under my shed. And both trying to dine on my vegetable garden.

    Smoked Mackerel

    I got a couple of mackerel on Friday on the CQ. I thought I might try smoking the fillets. So basically, I used Damnfish's recipe for smoked bluefish and cut the recipe way down. I used about 1/4 of each of the ingredients and went from there. When it came time to get them on the smoker, I...

    New Robo Call Twist

    I got this same exact spam in my email. It was a failure to pay on my EZPass. Interesting as I just got a statement from EZPass showing a good size available balance. Reported as spam and deleted.

    Safety certification

    I've taken the old boating safety class three times. Once by myself, once with my wife and a third time with my son when he was around 11 years old. For the life of me I can't find any of the certificates. Of course, the last time was when my son was 11, now he's 43. Does the USCGA or the...

    Sushi definitely has to go. The only place raw fish belongs is on my hook.

    Traeger Pro 575 Smoker on Sale at HD

    Hi Crabman, First of all, that pork looks outstanding. Great job. Second, I forgot to mention, if you're planning on smoking any salmon, here's a little known trick. Leave the skin on and before you put it on the smoker, take a knife and slice it almost down to the skin but NOT through the...

    Home Depot Drop the Price On the Traeger 575 Again, Now $480

    FWIW, when HomeDepot no longer has the pellets on sale, Lowes has PitBoss brand Competition pellets on sale. 40 lb bag for $16.99. Not like $5 but still a great price. I have a good supply in the shed but I think I'll stock up now. It's easy to use a ton of pellets over the summer.
