    Chancy Charters

    Diamond jigging is a fun way to catch bass, especially when they're mostly overs. Hugh Chancy put us on the fish to 30+ pounds, including a slot limit and too many thrown back to keep track of. Unfortunately, the most exciting catch of the day turned out to be a 20# bass foul hooked right behind...

    Sand eel City

    I had to see for myself. Shout out to Phil at Cow Harbor for helping with the where and the what. His advice was spot on. So I made the trek all the way to Smithtown Bay and the reports are accurate. Once we found the sand eels, we found the fluke. As many fluke as we wanted. Only one keeper...

    How to catch the attention of striped bass gorging on sandeels?

    That was my frustration yesterday. I tried diamond jigs (yo-yo and swum), 1/2 oz spro sand eel pattern, 3" white popper, swim bait. Nothing.

    That too. Tibs has to use the bench more. The last two 3 point shots were short, maybe because JB and KT were a bit tired?

    I disagree. All they had to do was run clock and stand on the defensive 3 point line. Now we know how Boston felt

    21" !!! A 16" smallmouth is a blast to catch. Nice going!

    Striped Bass

    It's been a nice start to the season in the extreme west pursuing the rare and endangered striped bass. I've managed a few bass every trip, but have yet to land the elusive lottery fish in the magical 28-31 slot. Yesterday was my first time chunking this year. I must have had 6-7 short runs...

    Coronavirus

    I do have to say that they need to do something about the MMR vaccine. Too many adverse reactions. Maybe spread it into 2 or separate shots eve if that costs insurance companies money? It gave my son a fever that kept rising until the scanning thermometer read ERROR. His skin was hot to the...

    Coronavirus

    My guess is that you've had it, but you are one of the lucky ones whose symptoms were not serious enough to test yourself.

    NY Mets

    For all their success this season, they have trouble driving in a runner from third or getting hits with the bases loaded. I think $oto is leading the league in hard hit outs.

    I think some will get a chainsaw and start their own private artificial reef program!;)

    Cholesterol and my new smoker

    Everyone is different. My body is much more sensitive to sugar and starch. Pizza, focaccia and pasta are much worse for me than a steak. The barbecue sauce affects me more than the ribs themselves.

    Flounder/Blackfish

    My friends and I had a great time catching blackfish on the No Time out of Oceanside yesterday. We stayed local/shallow and had steady action on blackfish for most of the day and quickly had a Spring/South shore blackfish limit of 2 pp. Everyone caught, whether using jigs, sinkers, crabs or...

    Green Crabs

    I've been flipping rocks to collect local crabs for bait for 20+ years. In that time, I can remember the very few rare occasions when the crab was not an invasive Asian Shore crab. Every one of these invasive species went into my bucket. Isn't collecting these crabs and using them for bait...
