Sharks in the Long Island Sound
Don't know what chopped up this 4-5lb bluefish, but check out the wide arc on the bite marks, the spread of the tooth marks, and the abrasion on the blue's cheek. This was west of Oyster Bay- Matts

Only in Maine
The last of the fishing shacks? "The fishing shacks that once perched on the rocks at Willard Beach in South Portland were part of a childhood that Maureen Connolly described on Monday as “quintessential Maine.” The shacks, with lobster buoys hanging from their walls, had served as a backdrop...- Matts

Another interesting tracking case heading to the courts...
" No right whale deaths have been conclusively linked to Maine’s lobster industry, and the last known entanglement in Maine was nearly two decades ago. " I think decisions should be based on evidence, not speculation.- Matts

Protecting Maryland's Striped Bass: New Emergency Regulations Announced
George wrote: "a slot size was implemented specifically to target [2015] fish. ... it seems logical to assume that we are now heavily targeting the following year class, which happens to be the 2016 year class, known to be one of the weakest on record. Considering that a year has passed...- Matts

a QB needs an OL Gino was awful, but look at him now. Fitzpatrick was fun to watch, but not successful. He left and became FitzMagic. Flaco did nothing, but he's winning with the Browns. Tommy Cutlets (TM) stunk up the field at Syracuse for 2 years, but went 9-3 his Covid+ year at Illinois. Much...- Matts

Protecting Maryland's Striped Bass: New Emergency Regulations Announced
I've done it. It's lots of fun and easy as sh*t to feel like a hero. Three years ago I would have said "hands off," but now that I realize how extensive the fishing pressure is, I don't know if I'll keep targeting bass in Raritan Bay during the month of April. Maybe this fishery or the entire...- Matts

Post up up your 2019/2020/2021/2022 Blackfishing Pix/Reports/Adventures/Musings
Sunday was beautiful. Sunny skies and easy winds from the west. Headed a little farther east than I have this year and it paid off with bigger fish. A slow start, but once the tide started to flood, we had nonstop action on jigs in 30'. Three anglers put at least 10-12 keepers in the boat, with...- Matts
