    at least it was nice out

    i just love the smell of lilacs, but even more when the water temps are between 50-55'. For me that's when things start to turn on. Won't be long now!

    How is the price of gas going to affect your boating?

    Gas prices are affecting just about everything. I recently renewed my on the water tow service, not surprising the cost has increased. I attempted to persuade the representative to possibly keep the same fee I was charged last year. Her response was with the rising cost of fuel the company has...

    Blackfish jigs

    Well George it's Spring tog time if the boats ready. I find when fishing for tog with jigs its best not to swing at anything that hasn't picked up the jig and started swimming away with it. That's how I do it anyway.

    How is the price of gas going to affect your boating?

    I'm really curious why you use high test, in your opinion is that a better gas than reg. fuel?

    How is the price of gas going to affect your boating?

    Stopped at the pump saturday after the LI Boat show. When I hit the 10 gal. mark and saw $43.90, that's when it kinda sunk in. I could say how I'm going to limit how and where I go with the boat but I'm thinking once your out chances are you'll go and do what your used to prices be damned. I...

    Last Hurrah

    Got out today (Sunday) with my grandson Evan and buddy Dan. Launched out of Pt. Jeff and made our way west to Cranes neck. Had high hopes for one last shot a Blackfish. Weather certainly cooperated, water and wind laid down and it was an absolutely beautiful day. Wish the fish were as...

    Port Jeff, Saturday

    So NOAA said wind was going to blow saturday afternoon and they weren't lying. Early morning launch from Pt Jeff ramp, weather was absolutely beautiful. Sun, no wind and the Sound was flat calm. Found some structure, dropped the hook, dunked some crabs and caught some fish. Couldn't seem to...

    Tasty

    Cooked up some of those toadies for moms, she loved them lol. Might be something to do while we're waiting for blackfish. Wouldn't mind vacuum packing a bunch of them, makes a great snack while watching football.

    The passing of a Great Fisherman

    I was very saddened to hear this news, Fred was always a pleasant guy to talk to at all the shows. To me he was a real class act. Does anyone know how old Fred was?

    Tons of life

    I love the screen shot of the boat with the trailer under it, looks great! Want to tow it to Rhode Island for some keeper fluke? Lol It's great when the weatherman gets it right. Gotta find some keeper fluke out there, law of averages. We'll get them next trip!

    Fog

    Just curious, do you think those marks were blues or bass?

    Foggy fluke!

    i've watched fisherman place the loop of the dropper through the eye of the hook then twist the loop before putting it over the hook. I fathom this might provide a cushion between the loop and the hook eye to prevent the line from chafing where the eye of the hook meets the shank?

    Holiday weekend at the banks

    Even if the NY Seabass season opened the same date as the CT season I think that would make a big difference. Still don't understand the creel issues in NY waters, the fishery certainly does not seem to be in trouble. 3 fish at 15" almost the whole summer is frustrating to say the least.

    Bent the rod

    Got out Monday, fished Moriches bay. We were in the water by 7a m, caught the end of the incoming. Overcast skies with a bit of wind out of the east sure made for comfortable fishing (should have brought a long sleeve tee). Loads of action with short fluke (not too many robins either), till the...
