    The stock market

    Somewhat comforting to know that some things never change.

    I just had to throw this out there . . .

    Wait until next year when they have to tell you what the insurance company really pays. Notice on that bill it doesn't say what the insurance Paid, only what they allowed. I'll wager they didn't have to pay 10% of that total. Its a big scam they hospitals and insurance companies have going, to...

    Striped Bass Fishermen, Where's The Outrage on the Proposed Conservation Equivalencies???

    George do you really believe that? The state issues 27,000 tags and only 1,101 fish were harvested using those tags? Maybe that's the correct number for the number of tags reported and returned. Do you really understand how the bonus tag system in NJ works? The state issues the tag to an...

    Striped Bass Fishermen, Where's The Outrage on the Proposed Conservation Equivalencies???

    George, come on man, you know better. does, CT, NH & ME commercial quotas get added back to the pot and get redistributed to commercial fisheries in other states? The answer would be a big fat NO. And neither would NJs if they opted to not use it. NJ issues 27,000 bonus tags each year. From...

    Opinions Please: Penn Senator 113N or Penn Fathom TFH40NLDHS for groundfishing in > 200 ft of water

    If you have the 113H stick with it, its not much heavier that the narrower spools. Drop down to 14 ounce jigs, they work just as well as the 18s and are easier on your arms.

    Striped Bass Fishermen, Where's The Outrage on the Proposed Conservation Equivalencies???

    I can't figure out how to edit my previous, but I would like to point out that I'm just trying to discuss the issue.When it comes to Striped bass and ASMFC i have a lot to say, but unless you're the ASMFC don't take it personally.

    Expensive smokes you didn’t like and why

    I've tried several especially back in the day when Crazy Al and I fished together. H liked Arturo Fuentes, but I never had one Could say I really liked. These days I'm smoking Excalibers.

    Striped Bass Fishermen, Where's The Outrage on the Proposed Conservation Equivalencies???

    Who is we? You got a mouse in your pocket? :) The ASMFC can believe whatever they like, they seem to believe in fairy tales, like "conservational equivalency" anyway. I'm just trying to tell you what the reality is. Ask Dominic he's on the same NJ message boards I'm on and he can verify that the...

    Striped Bass Fishermen, Where's The Outrage on the Proposed Conservation Equivalencies???

    Not really George, that's what they tell the ASMFC, but that's not how it works in reality. NJ issues 27,000 bonus tags, which, if each tag was used to kill one fish, would roughly equate to NJ's commercial quota. But, in reality, no one ever collects the bonus tag the first time its used, so it...

    Google kept scam fishing license ads up for months

    As a photog I can see both sides of this issue. At some point Congress is going to have to redefine copyright law to take the internet into account. I waned George about these copyright/pictures issues in the early days of Nor'east and things have gotten much worse since then.

    NJ is gamefish in name only, in actuality they use their commercial quota for their bonus tag program which probably kills more fish than they are entitled to under their commercial quota.

    Striped Bass Fishermen, Where's The Outrage on the Proposed Conservation Equivalencies???

    My guess is that if they continue to proliferate in ME waters the lobstermen will force the state to try an extirpate them.

    Aged meat?

    My 2 cents worth. Frost free only refers to the freezer portion of the refrigerator, so its not really a consideration in dry aging. If you want to see if you like dry aged beef, spring for a dinner at a good steak house. It'll be a lot cheaper than buying a whole shell of beef and aging it...

    Rut-Roh you folks south of the Gulf of Maine, extreme cod restrictions may "grace" your fisheries too!!

    Just to update. The NEFMC also voted to withdraw its authorization to GARFO to set the recreational fishing regs for George's Bank cod and also recently voted to keep the Georges Bank recreational measures same as past years, i.e. ten fish per man. If the recreational catch gets to be 5% or...

    FWIW, talking to Terry Stockwell before the last RAP meeting he said that they were finding the BSB more and more often in the ME waters where he fishes.

    1000 Pounds of Illegal Bass Confiscated

    Wrong, Don, they did nothing illegal in MA. They had MA commercial licenses, which entitled them to keep those fish in MA. Kidnapping across state lines is a federal crime.

    Striped Bass Draft Addendum VI Public Hearings

    Just guessing, but they expect a large turnout for these meeting adits does take time for the staff to write-up all of the comments and then they get consolidated for the meeting materials for the next board meeting. Plus I'm sure a number of commissioners are already talking about it ( I spoke...
