    Rhetorical question

    Speaking of Quincy, I remember running up there with a guy I use to work with on the New Haven RR and rent a skiff from Hurely's. We used hand lines and sat with one in ea. hand, pulling in fish one right after the other, in retrospect no one thought the flounder would die off, the same as the...

    Rhetorical question

    I can remember back in the late 70's early 80's catching weakfish up to 18 lbs off of buoy 20 Stratford ct, penfield reef and sunken island southport, the hot ticket was jelly worms, redfins and we also caught them on bunker chunks, in the summer of 83 I was recuperating from a near fatal...

    COVER whole boat or just 2/3 ?

    Your covering of the engine will cause the inside to sweat, during the day, it gets really hot when the sun beats down on the motor, I use to do the same thing, now my engine has a lot more corrosion because it, I couldn't understand where the corrosion was coming from because my engine cover is...

    Drew, great report, if I can help in anyway with the motor let me know, I think you have a lot of little stuff that will need to be replaced or cleaned, if the compression is good, they are worth putting a few bucks into them. Take Care. Jay

    Middle Ground and Charles Island

    Thanks, I'm actually looking for a fishing partner to share expenses, during the week when hardly anybody is out there is the time to go. I have all the gear I need, I use to make my own rods, but since I don't go offshore anymore, I sold all the Tuna setups except for one, which now I'm going...

    COVER whole boat or just 2/3 ?

    Covered mine today, completely covered, I covered but not sealed the engine so it can breathe, I use to seal it up tight. Now the moisture inside will be a lot less. I'm hoping for a mild winter, no snow would ok in my book.

    Middle Ground and Charles Island

    My younger son Charles and I made one last trip for the season yesterday and it turned out to be one of the best trips of the year. We put the boat in the water at Milford boat ramp, the tide was extremely high and made launching the boat difficult but we managed. I was a little worried about...

    Drew, if both your engines are tied together with the alarm system, it will put both engines into safe mode. Most of the time the alarms are for over heating, low oil and water in the gas. My alarm never went off when my oil float in the aux tank got stuck, Saturday I went through the whole...
