I read Party Boat Reports for fishing on Peconic Bay and yesterday( Monday) the fishing was just OK. Too much money/time...

    Stuck Lower Unit Drain plugs on Outboard Motors

    Had to remove lower unit drain plugs on 2 outboards and they wouldn't budge. Tried loosening those plugs with practically all my might and they wouldn't open. I bought a manual impact driver on Amazon and it worked like magic. Try using one of those drivers the next time you have trouble...

    Friday 5/8 trip

    Got the first break from the bad weather and went out Friday for Fluke and tried casting a surface plug for Bass hoping I'd get some bass in the back bays. Even with a forecast of 10-15 from the North it seemed way more breezy than that and I stayed as close to the mainland as possible and...

    What difference a day or too makes

    And I wouldn't rush out to Peconic Bay for Porgies right away . The vast majority of the reports said it was slow Porgy fishing out there .

    Port Of Egypt Sold

    Took 9 years to build the new State Boat Ramp next to Port Of Egypt after the land was donated to the State in 2012 and Fishing Fund money paid for it. No doubt Port Of Egypt was fighting against that ramp.

    Port Of Egypt Sold

    I remember going out to POE in the early to mid 1970's and we had fantastic weak fishing then. Big Tiderunners . They had big 18 foot aluminum boats . Plenty of room for 5 people. They sold them later and people bought them . I went out there with my father and launched our boat there for $45...

    Gas prices 2019 and beyond

    I bet $6 a gallon for Diesel on the water. Trump should release oil from SPR just for the trucking industry and order that it be refined and sold at the price before the war. Can't let inflation creep up again.Those Oil Companies should do that as a goodwill gesture. . Pause Federal and State...

    Daiwa reels

    My brother purchased a Diawa Sealine 50H years ago and about 2 years later Diawa said they wouldn't fix it. I purchased 2 of those reels on Ebay for about $35 Each. Very solid reel, way better than a Jigmaster.

    Long Island Emergency rooms are a disgrace !

    I'll look into that Ablation thing. This sounds very scary - Doctors sometimes stop a heart and start it again to get the heart rate stable again. Fire Dept. Paramedics stopped my mothers heart while she was laying in bed and started it again. Heart rate was normal again. Amazing they can stop a...

    Wanna build a rod but don't have a table-top wrapping setup to spin on the threads?

    I bought a rod making kit on Amazon for about $20 . Came with nice guides, thread and Epoxy. I'm putting new guides on my old Ugly Stik Tiger Rods. The Best Rods I ever owned . They'll never break. The 6 Foot 6 light medium rod they sold has the nicest action . The new ones I don't care for.
