    Peanuts or snappers ?

    Back on topic. too windy to stay out for more than an hour this morning and didn't even try the drift sock. glimpsed two or three juvenile dolphins in Jones Creek but absolutely no sign of snappers or peanuts. By this time of year. and perusing my logs, its usually jumpin' from the boat ramp...

    Peanuts or snappers ?

    A little of the fun isn’t there with this “Captain Matt” not being human.

    that just downright scares me.

    Peanuts or snappers ?

    George, that was close. (the post). Not quite tongue in cheek, a little too informative without enough sarcasm, but really close.

    Peanuts or snappers ?

    I have been having one of my worst seasons in years in my backbay kayaking forays. No keepers in a month. (I have been seeing dolphins on most paddles during this past month.) What I have yet to see is the usual bunch of peanuts getting attacked but instead the dolphins are herding and...

    tides question, Great South Bay

    No, it was tideschart.com that had Lindenhurst. I agree, I will just use Tides Near Me and add another fifteen minutes or so for the Copaigue Hole or maybe Tanner Park. That way, I should be able to figure just how long I will be in Massapequa waters before the current goes slack, and I can...

    tides question, Great South Bay

    Too hot and windy for me for kayakfishing so I thought I would "play" with this. What a disaster. NOAA, Tides for Me and Tideschart,com not only have different times, but one, Tidecharts, lists the same high tide times for Massapequa, Amityville, and Copaigue! Lindenhurst is an hour...

    tides question, Great South Bay

    I use Tides Near Me also. I need to see if I can find a “spot” in lindenhurst to see the difference from amityville to try to determine how much longer an incoming will flow past a massapequa location at “high tide”

    tides question, Great South Bay

    That was exactly what i was looking for, including how to figure when the current would continue to move and for how long at a certain point. Thank you

    ICAST 2025: Game-Changing Kayak Fishing Gear Hits the Water

    No upgrades for me. My Hurricane kayaks are thermomolded, not rotomolded and 20% lighter as a result. If I want pedals, I take out a bicycle. Trolling motors, electronics ? No sport in that. Why don't we just install an electric stun gun and do away with lures and fishing rods ?

    what size spinning reel ?

    it was the condescending snarkiness interspersed with a really dry sense of humor. when he surfcasted, it was with his Denali, no ? The twin yammies on the Grady Lady. Always referred to the "pelagics", and how all fluke over 15 inches and all stripers over 30" were female. I used to think...

    I really miss Captain Matt. Whoever that really was had a true gift.

    what size spinning reel ?

    Was that a bot or is Captain Matt The Professional with his Yammie equipped Grady Lady chasing pelagics really back ?

    what size spinning reel ?

    was this a sighting of long lost Captain Matt, i.e. The Professional, from bygone days ? Oddly enough, I do have a Daiwa BG2000 and a 2500 for the kayak. Will look into a 5000.

    what size spinning reel ?

    VS. LOL. That would be like replacing my Maverick with a Bentley to drive to ShopRite.

    what size spinning reel ?

    Although it could be technique, based on casting distance, I think I may be using a reel too small for the rod. The reel is a Penn Battle II 4000. The rod is an Okuma Rockaway 11' Medium 1102M rated at 3/4 to 3 oz. What size reel should I be looking at ? 4500 ? Even larger ? I want...
