Last of the 2024 Chicken of the Sea. The 2025 blowfish should be here any day. Unfortunately, the bluefish are already here and that's not good for the incoming blowfish. The bluefish will annihilate them.

Had some fun in the kitchen this morning. It began with my air fryer and bacon. From there, I usually don't use boxed pancake mix, but when I do, I use Krusteaz. I mixed it as per the directions and poured it in a dispensing bottle. I dried the bacon grease and cut each piece in half...

So far, so good. Not an easy job getting the old anchoring cement out of the holes but with a 5/16" hammer drill bit I was able to eat it up and eventually chisel it out. Took about an hour. I cut the new posts and plan to anchor them in tomorrow. I'm happy with progress.

Time to fix three metal fence posts that rotted out after the installer didn't fill the hole with anchoring cement allowing water to pool and rust to develop. I saw the problem when I bought the house a few years back and decided I would fix it when it became a real problem. Today, it's a real...

Heading out on my Carolina Skiff to cast for some bass this afternoon. After that, I'm going to dig some clams on the flats. Too nice of a day to do yard work.

My daughter lived in Thailand and we used to eat snakehead on a regular basis.

Spring roll night over here. Here's the fixings.

How about wrapping it in cheap chicken wire. If it's lost it will corrode away.

Seems Captain Horner has gotten a few more charges levied after his original arrest. "The FWC said their investigation also revealed more about a separate March 29 charter fishing trip operated under Horner’s business, Tarpon Coast Fishing Charters. FWC said they found Horner was operating...

Been playing around with the ball jig. I cut the lead barb off and shortened the jig. I then bent a ring at the new tail end of the jig. I might cut the entire shoulder off and make it like a fluke ball. It's still cheaper if I make my own and I enjoy doing it. Another option with the shoulder...

With all the wind, I'm hanging out in the garage pouring and painting some swing hook, round ball jigs. I don't like the Mustad hook for my mold. This one is 1 ounce.

Great tip Capt. Mike. As for donating or dragging our killie cars, we have all been there and done that. I have found a couple of the yellow and black cars floating.

Yum Longcast. That waffle looks awesome. Looks like I have to get my butt out of bed and make breakfast. Last night was scungilli and bucatini with a very nice salad and vinaigrette.

That is interesting Capt. Mike, never knew that either. I still love using big killies but they are hard to get. They were really hardy and with a piece of squid on it's nose, I feel, they would shake it around and excite a fluke into taking the bait. Now I mostly use peanuts if I'm not...

Thanks Capt. Mike but I learned it as a kid from the masters. I was the shitty little jobs person that got to clean the seaweed out of the net. Over the years, I worked my way up to being a master baiter. (old joke but works here)

Definitely not a toss them on and take them off when done meat. Lots of hands on but I found it enjoyable and they are so delicious. This was a very helpful video with some good suggestions. She only weighed 130 and then she bought a smoker.

Why not?

Well this is interesting. My usual cholesterol is a total of 120 with a high HDL. My normal diet was chicken, fish, pork tenderloins and pasta with tomato sauce. My cardiologist insists l get my cholesterol tested at his office every three months after a quadruple bypass in 2018. Since 2018...

It's as local as you can get. I can throw a rock at them from my backyard. I use local spearing and I get my pick of the best. I enjoy catching spearing, it all part of my fishing experience. It takes a good eye to make a good set. Once they are caught, you have to get them in ice water to keep...

^^^^ I'm in. I would give that a try.
