    Grillin & Chillin

    I purchased a grill from this company, Charcoal Grills about 12-15 years ago. These type grills are usually found in state parks and places like that. They are built to last and come in a variety of sizes. I have a Weber as well but since I purchased the charcoal grill the only thing I use...

    HAMPTON MAN BREAKS RECORD FOR LARGEST THRESHER SHARK CAUGHT IN CONNECTICUT

    Not quite the beast as some of the others depicted, but here’s a mid November late day whistle fish, 330 pounds, we had a some years ago aboard the KRISTEN as well. That was a full Freeport Tuna Club crew, with Mike Sullvan on the rod, the late George S. on the wheel, I wired, and Captain...

    HAMPTON MAN BREAKS RECORD FOR LARGEST THRESHER SHARK CAUGHT IN CONNECTICUT

    I wasn’t on this trip my brother was. It was captured aboard the late Captain Larry’s beloved F/V KRISTEN. Was 600 on the nose. The date was October 3, 1995. That was the same day OJ was acquitted.

    HAMPTON MAN BREAKS RECORD FOR LARGEST THRESHER SHARK CAUGHT IN CONNECTICUT

    Just read an article on my AOL news that described the fish as being “snagged.” If so that could very well have contributed for the 7 hour battle. That also would make it ineligible under IGFA rules and regulations. I don’t know CT criteria for application for a state record.

    HAMPTON MAN BREAKS RECORD FOR LARGEST THRESHER SHARK CAUGHT IN CONNECTICUT

    It certainly is the heaviest. IGFA regulations do not apply in CT application for a State record. I do not know what regulations the State has. The article mentions that “he landed himself in the record books” on July 30th. It doubtful it is officially a record 5 days later I ASS-ume there...

    watch out for the whale

    It is a Federal Crime under the Marine Mammal Protection Act to be harassing whales. This incident with those idiots in the Trophy Bayliner should be investigated, and if need be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Violators of the MMPA can face civil penalties, criminal fines and...

    BB/ pellet gun recommendations

    They used .20 Heck, if I can still buy film for my Polaroid 150 Land Camera, and Swinger’s I’m sure the pellets wouldn’t be too hard to find. Not that I would be using hundreds of rounds, just another toy to play around with. A collectors item.

    BB/ pellet gun recommendations

    Back in the day Sheridan Model C was 👍👍👍 in my book. Powerful, accurate, and made well. The company was sold, and changes were made to that line. Not good changes. Anyway, you can find them for sale online. They are scarce, and very well sort after. I’m going to look into getting one for...

    Another Milestone! The Worlds First Real Time Fishing Articles

    Very impressive, with lots of useful data points. A question concerning the “article” so to speak. Does AI update it automatically without human request, or assistance? As an example, will AI on its own, analyze satellite data daily, hourly, etc., for water temperatures, and make necessary...
