    Did you know that . . .

    Much safer uncasing then loading or unloading a shotty on a tailgate than leaning it on some little sapling. Similar to the ultra dangerous pistol grip on a certain semi auto rifle, the elimination of which makes it unwieldy and inherently unsafe. These laws are invaribly written by...

    just shorts again but

    Dolphins were back in Massapequa Cove this morning. Couldn't get a pic.as they are not very photogenic. I got one short fluke and let the onshore blow me back to the ramp. Two different boats must have tried netting bunker (?) for at least an hour. No idea how successful they were but...

    just shorts again but

    sad that I never got another keeper last year after the sightings, but to see dolphins in the back bay after never seeing them in 50 years makes getting skunked an afterthought. Last year it was much later in the season as I was livelining snappers. They were too smart to take my snapper...

    just shorts again but

    on the way back in had 2 or 3 dolphins swim past me in Massapequa Cove. Was shocked last year when I say a pod of 4-5 on the opposite side of biltmore shores, and then hooked into a sand tiger shark while livelining snappers just off the same waterfront homes. I never caught another keeper...

    new kayak carrier

    Won't need luck as that won't be a problem. I rarely go out if the wind is over 10mph and I haven't traveled more than four miles from my house with the kayak in years. My typical day kayak fishing is 7ish to 11ish when the onshore starts up. Although I really only have one tie down point on...

    new kayak carrier

    so after starting kayak fishing at age 54 twenty years ago and using a bed extender on a mommy van, then trading that in for a 2010 Ranger with its 6' bed, I have finally traded in the Ranger for a new awd hybrid Maverick. But to enter the 21st century with its electronic suite I had to settle...

    tides question, Great South Bay

    Enjoying all the comments but where along the town of Babylon is "the spot" that is more influenced by the current and tide of one inlet over the other inlet?

    tides question, Great South Bay

    So I can infer that Jones Inlet tides and current do not impact Babylon. Yet Jones Inlet tides and current do impact Amityille and not tides and current from Fire Island Inlet. somewhere in the middle must be the answer to my query.

    tides question, Great South Bay

    not sure how to word this but will try. When I docked in Lindenhurst in the 70s I used to look at tide charts for the two inlets but primarily Fire Is. Usually went to Snakehill so I looked up Fire Is Inlet tides. When I moved the boat in the 80s to Amityville I switched to fishing West...

    Just shorts but saved a bunny

    On the way out as I neared the first channel marker I spotted what I thought was a muskrat swimming perpendicular to my "course", but then I saw the ears ! Tried to herd him back to a beach as he was trying to climb the bulkheading but it kept swimming away. At first I took a photo or two but...

    Computer question

    yup, when my phone tells me my "cloud is full" and I can't back up, I think, "good," "they" can't get to that ! But back to my original q., "which freeware spreadsheet and word processor programs out there would be able to 'see' and modify the files created by me over the years on the 2016...

    NYSDEC On Patrol

    My long deceased friend, retired Army Colonel and SCPD would always say the car going below the speed limit is the one to pull over. (Drunk or junkie or back seat full of home break-in goodies.) Last two tickets I got, in 1975, for speeding, I was in uniform but driving a year old V8 Red Mustang.

    NYSDEC On Patrol

    Town of Hempstead bay constables don't do random fish inspections. They inspect EVERYBODY some days and word gets around. (Note to asshats: Poach in Oyster Bay or Queens waters.) Back when I had motorboats, I think I was inspected less than half a dozen times over 40 years. Twice by DEC...

    Computer question

    I am going to have to replace my PC within a year as Windows 10 will no longer receive updates and my PC comes just short of meeting 11's requirements. My question is that I have been using Word 2016 and Excel 2016 and want to be able to review, retrieve and modify many of the saved files...
