    where have all the big seabass gone? It's nice to see at least a picture of one over 20" and with a knot on its head!

    that was pretty cool. I am always unsure about chumming up tog. I'm afraid of drawing in porgies or too many small fish. But perhaps the small fish draw in the bigger fish. I might try chumming with mussels.

    I like Gipson. Happy he found a better home and his family doesn't have to throw out all the green clothes!

    I'm on by buddy's boat on the south shore over some rubble in one of the local artificial reefs. We're getting life as soon as the jig got to the bottom and plenty of shorts. Then my jig goes weightless. I swing, but the tip stays down, the rod doubles over and the fish takes some drag. I get...

    2025 MD Striped Bass Young of Year Assessment - Make that 7 consecutive spawn failures!!

    My two cents: We need to find out why spawning results have been poor. Let's assume the 7 years of poor spawning success has at least some accuracy. As Roccus says, unless we get to the root of the problem, we are not going to fix it. They could ban all bass fishing, but if pollution, loss of...

    I wonder if they would work on a 21' boat. Also, I have a pair of transducers coming of the starboard and port chines. Would these interfere with that?

    The oldest Clam

    Clamity So they did not know how old it was when they opened it up and some of the clams we eat may be over 100?! Another shellfish fun fact - my understanding is that shucking an oyster does not kill it immediately, such that we are eating live oysters. Creepy, but delicious!

    Jets

    The only reason I watched was because I hate the Cowboys. The Jets were driving down the field for the tie, fumbled the ball, and then everyone gave up until garbage time when the Cowboys were no longer trying that hard. Their O line is awful, the defense gets no rush on the QB, and now I see...

    Green crab soup and climate change

    Personally, I think bait, fertilizer and animal feed are better solutions than trying to convince us to eat those things!

    Despite everything, if not for a few bad calls, and only one or two mental mistakes, and we would have been in it until losing in the last minute instead of much earlier! lol

    I have my grandfather's, which he used in his job as a wallpaper hanger when he was done painting Navy ship hulls in Brooklyn. Looks kind of like that one.

    Actually, no. My recollection was almost anything I really wanted to see was sold out. Plus, despite the high prices these days, I can afford them a lot more than I could afford anything back then!

    Current Direction App

    Has anyone else tried the Predictcurrent App? (I have no affiliation or personal interest) We know that current direction and speed is more important than merely knowing the time of high or low tide. I just started trying this new app, which seems a little too good to be true. It also includes...

    FLUKE & WORMS

    I'm curious how you fish the peanuts. I've never had success with live peanuts. I've tried them on my normal dropper loop rig on a teaser, and on a long leader with a bare single hook, but usually end up cutting them the long way and fishing them like strip bait. Any suggestions would be...

    Should They Board, or Shouldn't they?

    Should They Board, or Shouldn't they?

    It seems to me that some probable cause ought to be required before an officer of the state can stop, i.e., temporarily arrest you to search your boat. The law says that in general, you cannot stop someone without probable cause. But there are exceptions. For example, the police can set up check...
