    Are you hanging it up for the season or still fishing?

    I'll never forget a day I went to go blackfishing on a Party boat. The Captain came down and said: Today is a day to fish for people that do not know any better. If you want to leave, I'll understand."

    Are you hanging it up for the season or still fishing?

    The blackfish were chewing. But Saturday I couldn't buy a nibble. Maybe time to hang it up. In a small center console boat, its cold out there. Which brings me to another point. How do you keep your hands warm??

    The weather is getting cold. I will try this weekend, and maybe next week. But then I may hang it up for the season.

    Rusty Knives

    Your care seems excellent. The only thing that comes to mind is that the leather sheath is wet. Try storing them outside the sheath and see if that helps. Put the back after your sure the leather is dry, or you need to go fishing.

    2nd body of missing kayaker found

    This seemed like a better ldea than my pne piece Carhartt suit. It is Coast guard approved and some seemed to be used against the cold and in rescue operations. The only issue is it is a bit bulky.

    Brown Liquor of the Moment

    In my youth, I loved barrel proof bourbon. As I get older, I noticed I have to add more water to barrel Proof. Unfortunatley most of the bourbons in my bunker are barrel proof.

    2nd body of missing kayaker found

    I thought there was a new law (rule?) that Nov 1st, boats under 21 feet mandate the use of life jackets. I was concerned knowing how much clothing I wear in these cold months. I know there is no way I could swim with all the layers. I purchased a Type V PFD one piece full body life jacket. It is...

    Trolling Motor - Spot Lock

    Are they cheaper for a small, 17-foot boat? I have spots I can get to with a kayak that would get me concerned with my boat. When I heard the cost, I never considered one. Now I see they can be used for trolling and spot lock. Plus, I have never been great at staying on a spot even with 2...
