    Safety certification

    Just so I am more specific.... When I put the boat in the water, usually at Mount Siani, when we are headed for the Sound, I like to stow the bummers and line, may take care of a few things that need to be stowed. I like to keep the boat neat. At that time, I usually have whoever I’m with take...

    Safety certification

    Curious, lets say you want to clean up the boat or rig up the rods (just an example) and you ask a friend take over for a bit. You still OK? Whether they will ever stop anyone and ask for documentation is another question

    Combo Chartplotter/FF??

    BTW: If you do get the 74SV unit, Captain Doug Toback of CORAZON FISHING CHARTERS recommended a bottom chip that I have to agree was a good purchase. Get the latest version of the GARMIN 010-C0705-00 / Garmin VUS004R - New York - SD Card. I’m not sure if this is the latest version. Again, it...

    Combo Chartplotter/FF??

    If space is an issue, remove the Lowrance and just get a bigger machine. I have the Garmin 74 SV and wish I had gotten a bigger machine.

    Funny you should say that. I was walking my dog. I saw some young kids walking with poles. I asked them if they were going fishing and what they were going for. To my surprise they said flounders. I asked do you actually catch any. They said they did.

    I was speaking with Captain Paul. He has been all over and even worked on Celtic Quest years back. I mentioned to him how we used to catch boat loads of flounder. His reply was “That why they are gone”. He explained that those flounder were fished out. The only ones left in any quantity were the...

    SD and Micro SD Cards - Did you get the memo regarding reviving "Dead Cards"???

    Probably because nobody owns pencils anymore and memory is much cheaper than it used to be. But it is a great trick!

    Does this mean a dozen oysters offsets a Tomahawk Steak???

    I have been and infectious disease guy most of my working life. But never bothered to culture myself. But I got bad diarrhea every time. It was self-liming, but very annoying. I harvested near the Mount Sinia area.

    Local shellfish that I have harvested have contained Vibrio.

    Boat evaluation?

    Walk away. I think you made a more than fair offer. As an example, my daughter fiancé found a 30 foot Proline. The guy used it one year and died. It sat for 20 years. He paid $16 or $18,000 for it. Yes, it needed tons of work. Just the boat needed a ton of wet sanding, then compound, then...

    Another LI Party Boat Busted for BSB Violations...

    Interesting....I was on the Port Jeff dock. A DEC officer came on the bridge and a guy picked up his pail and dumped his fish. The officer went up to him. I didn't see the guy get a ticket. I later asked the officer about that and he said he didn't get a ticket because he never saw the fish...

    Another LI Party Boat Busted for BSB Violations...

    I would think the Cap[tain would have the final say on keeping shorts. If he didn't allow it, the mates wouldn't do it. If they did, they have to find another boat to work on.

    Another LI Party Boat Busted for BSB Violations...

    Stupid follow up questions. There are successful boats that do not allow fisherman to keep shorts. The mates help remove the hook and toss them back in. It isn’t a topic of discussion. How much business do they gain by allow fisherman to keep shorts? In other words, there are a few boats at the...

    Yellow Jacket MF’s

    I saw the yellow jackets going in and out of a tiny opening of my rear porch light and cedar shakes. I kept spraying the tiny hole. Then I got the bright idea to remove the porch light after the traffic continued. I saw a whole bunch of faces staring at me when I did. I ran like hell. Spraying...
