    2023 Maryland Striper Young of Year Survey Results - DISASTER!!

    Interestingly, they are saying similar things about the trout in Montana. Not enough melting snow and streams getting too warm for native trout, with numbers down 70% or so.

    Where are the bunker

    I'm in the far west, and from the end of June until recently, we've had truly massive amounts of peanuts, but not many adults. I was looking forward to a great jigging and popping fall. But after last week's storm, I only see a small fraction of what was there 2 weeks ago.

    Coronavirus

    Yes, for now, with the variants we've seen recently. But if we adopt a get it and get over it attitude, we greatly increase the occurrence of virus mutation, which increases the probability of dangerous mutations. Also, for those who think China invented Covid, why would they not be working on a...

    Miss Montauk

    Went out on the Miss Montauk on a windy Monday. Constant action all day. Just gulp, just bait, or a combination all seemed to be working around the boat. I had a bunch of shorts and maybe 7 or 8 keeper size, while looking for that big one. Great trip, boat and mates. Captain Jamie runs a tight...

    Jets

    Everyone wrote off the Chiefs game. Jets fans stopped caring, assuming the season was gone. So the Jets had to make it close, just to get our hopes back up and get us to start caring again, just so they could crush those hopes yet again, like Lucy pulling away the football. We fall for it every...

    The Endgame Commences...

    “I find it wholesome to be alone the greater part of the time. To be in company, even with the best, is soon wearisome and dissipating. I love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.” ― Henry David Thoreau, Walden

    NOAA over estimates rec catch

    There is a big difference between "best available data" and "best available science." But best available data is not necessarily the best data, just the best data available to them. Best available data means you use what your have, regardless whether the data you have is accurate. That's what...

    Poachers!

    "One guy was caught by the DEC on the Jones Beach Piers with over a 1000 Bunker and you just know they were Chinese." How? Maybe they planned on selling them to a bait shop? Were the violators in George's article Chinese? I know plenty of 2d generation or more descendants of immigrants (most of...

    YELLOW JACKET ?

    A different article stated that they want meat and insects for the larvae all summer, but once late summer hits and the queen begins her hibernation, they switch to sugar (nectar, fruit, daiquiri's...) before dying off.

    Whats going on in the World

    Frankly, I'm tired of subsidizing federal flood insurance (not private hurricane insurance, so slightly off topic) as currently structured, to help land developers continuously rebuild in flood plains every few years.

    Do you know any Ukes living in the U.S., especially if they have family still in Ukraine? Explain to them that they're Russian and that Putin is not a problem. See what happens.

    Bluefish are fun

    My 20 something daughter enjoys fishing now and then, and she does love my fish tacos. She was home over the weekend, so I offered to take her porgie fishing as a prelude to her desired lunch. Just as we settled into position over some rocks near Prospect Point and were getting some taps from...
