    When Deer take advantage of Sunny Days

    One time I was up at my Chenango County property and was driving down a road and I spooked a herd of bucks . Unbelievable, I saw 7 or 8 Bucks with 6,8, 10 points go sprinting away all in a line.

    Which state has better inshore fishing , NY or Florida?

    Have you ever gone sailfishing in the Keys ? Very easy renting a boat there and fishing for them on the reef. Sometimes it's non stop action in early winter.

    Which state has better inshore fishing , NY or Florida?

    I remember fishing the Juno Pier and it was like fishing on a Party boat , lined with fishermen who were catching nice King Mackerel and Bluefish. Saw guys walk off with a barrel of fish. No doubt the offshore fishing is better, but inshore I didn't see much action the 25 years I've been down...

    Which state has better inshore fishing , NY or Florida?

    All the times I fished inshore Florida, the Florida Keys was the best . You drop a chum bag in the water there and 5 minutes later there's a gazillion fish swimming near your boat. Great Sail fishing on the Reef as well . I like how shallow it is off the West Coast. Thanks for the Info.

    Which state has better inshore fishing , NY or Florida?

    I only went off shore fishing on a boat when I visited Florida in the past. Fished off bridges and piers down there and didn't see a soul fishing the intra coastal water way or a lot of people fishing off the piers. From Fort Worth fishing piers all the way up to St. Lucie Inlet area fishing...

    When Deer take advantage of Sunny Days

    Weird feeling seeing a buck out in the open , 9 out of 10 deer you see have no antlers and when you see one you're in some dream like state looking at them moving along very sneaky .Hope no hot rod next summer kills that deer.

    Just purchased my first Chinese Outboard Motor

    Just couldn't spend $2500-$3000 for a backup motor. Should be fine for me. You should see the busy Hangkai production line, like 300 of these motors lined up in the factory ready to be boxed. I like the challenge of getting this to last a long time.

    Tog & Mackerel

    My father remembered as a kid in the 50's the fall was the time to catch mackerel out of Sheepshead Bay. 7 or 8 years ago there was a nice mackerel run outside Jones Inlet for months during the winter. A mile or two out. Keep your fingers crossed , maybe the crazy fall wind will die down and I...

    Just purchased my first Chinese Outboard Motor

    Bought a brand new Hangkai 12 HP Long shaft outboard on Ebay for $840 . Got it today, looks real good. Spare parts and a 6 gallon gas tank with hose. Bought it for a backup motor on my 25 Panga, will store it in a plastic tote and put bubble wrap all around it and a blanket underneath. My motor...

    Another LI Party Boat Busted for BSB Violations...

    Those who fish the West End know the name of that Green Party boat. They quickly fish out a wreck and leave nothing for everybody else.

    They should be able to charge them if they're seen throwing fish overboard as they approach.

    Anybody have luck using Mojo Heads and Umbrella rigs?

    I think I'll use a planer also.

    Anybody have luck using Mojo Heads and Umbrella rigs?

    I was looking at 28 OZ. drails but was worried they'd sink in the water while trolling and affect the lure action. I think MoJo's are connected from the top and it's up and down like a downrigger ball.

    MoJos made trolling fun again.

    Anybody have luck using Mojo Heads and Umbrella rigs?

    Thinking of getting a MoJo head about 24 OZ. and trolling an umbrella rig behind it. Sure beats that horrible wire line or clumsy downriggers. Found a seller on Ebay who sells big heavy Mo Jo heads real cheap. He's got a deal like 8 Norway ( without hooks ) Cod Jigs 12 OZ for $23. Just spray...

    Partyboats know they're rarely boarded, that's why they looked the other way. The mates are the ones to blame, they make money filleting fish .

    Bluefish I guess

    Are the bass and blues on the surface or down deep ? I have 5 or 6 umbrella rigs ready to do battle.

    Bluefish I guess

    This year the bass are chasing huge pods of sand eels. What happened to the bunker this year ? not many pods out of Jones and probably the same along the South Shore.

    Nice to be out, but no fish

    Went out Tuesday for Porgies near the Jones Beach Piers and not one nibble. Maybe a few, I couldn't tell with the strong tide. Anchored with 2 other boats maybe about 2 hours before slack low tide , had a hard time holding bottom with a 6 OZ. sinker. Waited until I saw the other boats catching...
