    Getting your Captains License....

    Congrats! What School did you go through? I got mine two years ago and man, was it stressful going through the courses and tests. Hadn't crammed that hard since college....

    Is Peconic Bay a White shark Nursery ?

    Is this the episode? They are certainly close enough to Peconic bay, and there have been whales that have wandered into the Bay in the past.

    Boat Scammers on Craig's List

    You guys did better than we did for sure! Nice pics! I’ll repeat what i said on the video. I really hate that rig set up. There’s got to be a better way. And, yeah, those weather conditions do not sound like fun.

    Boat Scammers on Craig's List

    By the way, posting is now expired on this one but absolutely love how they highlight the shore power chord, fenders, ropes, etc in the Ad and not the power...

    Boat Scammers on Craig's List

    Jay, 7 or 8 years ago, that’s a normal deal on a then 20 year old boat....my presumption is someone who hasn’t boat shopped in a while gets suckered into this every day and that’s why these scammers keep doing what they’re doing....

    Fuel tank installation help?!

    He’s a frequent contributor on The Hull Truth boat website (not as good as nyangler.com, but few are), and I’m almost positive I’ve read threads on tank replacements where he’s commented about the time and effort involved when his shop does them.

    Combo Chartplotter/FF??

    For what it’s worth, West Marine will have some Black Friday sales on the Garmin Echo units. I’ve always found Garmin to be most user friendly (but totally get everyone has their favorites). I run a Humminbird too and love the sounder on that unit....

    Captain Mike - have you considered using a wreck anchor? They are great for rocky areas and they are “bendable” so they straighten out when trying to pull out of the rocks and then bend back in place to their original shape fairly easily with a PVC pipe. I’ve never lost one (pre trolling motor...

    Boat Scammers on Craig's List

    Jay - thanks for sharing your story here and also on my Youtube vid (it's John H). I think the other crazy thing about these scams is the level of sophistication associated with some of them. Besides the "too good to be true" pricing, they are now creating fake "review" sites with scores of...

    Florida Flounder

    This article best describes the different names. To be clear, “southern flounder” and the “summer flounder” we see here in the NE are closely related, but different. Also, I think the “fluke” vs “flounder” naming convention border is somewhere in NJ. I run a charter and most, but not all, of...

    School Me On Blackfish Jigs

    I think there’s a learning curve with jigs. The beauty of the jig is it lets a big blackfish swoop in and “walk away” with the bait with no heavy sinker in play offering resistance. It takes a lot of patience to wait out the small taps and hits and wait for your jig to either get that sharp...
