    It’s been an unusual year so far. (for me)

    The weather, especially on the weekends, has not been great. A lot of wind has kept me from fishing on my boat. I have caught over 40 fluke. But zero keepers. A friend had similar experience on the south shore I have not caught Mackerel in the Long Island Sound in many years. This year, maybe...

    Rain

    Is the bite diminished after rain? Does all the run off matter to the fish?

    Has anyone tried John Skinner program

    Keeping a fishing log is important to me. I say this: FishersLog Home - Fishing Log Software for the Serious Angler and wondered if anyone tried it.

    Anyone catching fluke?

    What was your short to keeper ratio? How many feet of water were you fishing in. Which tide was best?

    Old lures

    I saw some old lures. The names ring a bell, but I have never used any of them (I tend to stay with bucktails). I do not surf cast. I fish on my boat. Any worth considering?

    Boat Fenders

    Two of my boat fenders were looking a bit soft. (see pic) I was going toblow them up a bit, expecting a valve like a football or basketball. But there a hard black plug there. (see second pic) I assume you don't pry those out. Are these two fenders considered sealed?

    Anyone heard of M3Tackle

    Went to a seminar where they were mentioned. I had never heard of them before. They mentioned Fluke Candy Hi-Lo Rigs. Looking for feedback if you have used them.

    Are the regulations the same for 2025?

    No last minute changes I hope.

    Deck/Fishing Boot

    I am looking for a boot that is waterproof. My friend recommended Grundens deck-boss ankle boot. Just looking for other recommendations. Are these comfortable?

    Caraftis Fishing Station

    Not sure how many of you went there. But Caraftis Fishing Station is permanently closed. Tim and Candy are great people.

    Miller Place fish and tackle

    I passed Miller Place fish and tackle. The store was empty. There were other cars behind me, so I couldn't stop. Are they moving or go out of business?

    Librela may lead to premature death for your older dog

    I had a very special dog I loved with all my heart. His name was Banksy. My daughter named him after the graffiti artist. Of all the dogs in shelter, he was the only asymmetrical one (patch on his eye) and that is why he got that name. He is an American Staffordshire Terrier with a heart of...

    Knife discussion

    I know we all focus on rods, reels, lures. But I just learned a lot for Leprechaun. My favorite and go to knife has always been my Vintage Rapala J Marttiini Finland Filet Knife which is 14". I also have a Dexter 2333-9. I wanted to buy a present for my daughter fiancé and Leprechaun mentioned...

    Floor Jacks

    I have had a two ton floor jack for many years. The hydraulic has started leaking. Is there anyone in Suffolk county (or Nassua) who rebuilds the pistons?

    Marine electronics

    A little late this year, but I finally got my boat sorted out. One issue I had was my GPS. I would hook it up, hit the ON button and sometimes it would light up, sometimes nothing. The other symptom from last year was we were heading for a spot, and the GPS would again go blank. It is...
