    Bearing stuck on spool post problem.

    this is a very common problem on the Newells. when I encounter this issue-if all other suggestions fail- you may need to use a Dremel with a cutting blade to cut through the bearing, being careful to not go so far through that you damage the shaft. once you get about 3/4 of the way through the...

    Adding AC/Heat

    morning Matty. happy new year I have AC on the pursuit. no generator so I only run it when im plugged in. it really is a nice option when we sleep on the boat while tied up in a marina. I've never tried to run it with a generator but it really doesn't draw as much as you would think so the...

    North Star

    I am thinking optimistically but we may see a comeback with the Macks. it seems there is no shortage of them up north - which might mean their migration pattern changed and they've been bypassing our area. there was a short run of mackerel in the sound this season and this fall we had some...

    Returnemright - Barotrauma

    hey Matt. thanks for the info. im sure it would be beneficial up here on Long Island-especially for releasing seabass. its amazing to me how few people use a venting tool. its a simple procedure. equally amazing to me is that most local tackle shops don't even sell venting tools!

    Garmin vs Simrad

    hey Matty. mike Zullo here. good luck with the purchase. hope all goes well. as you know the kind of fishing I like to do my electronics mean everything. when upgrading the electronics on my current boat I had the same dilemma. I went with all Garmin and I have no regrets. feel free to reach...
