    When The Ocean Gives Lemons (Ling), Make Fishcakes! Made them tonight, my first try ever, and they came out as great as any I've ever had in a fish-oriented restaurant. Really super delicious! Wifey had hers on a bed of arugula. Topping is a combination of Tartar Sauce, Gold's...

    Yeah, I said the same thing. He told me there’s a guy on eBay that is selling them. I think Freddy told me that the dude actually makes them to order.

    Last weekend sailed with Capt. Mike (my boat), went deep, caught zero keepers, finished with 20 Ling. Love those things. Very few and far between biscuits, no keeps there either. Maybe a dozen short flatties. Fish came up feeling like they were packed in ice. Yesterday, return trip with the...

    Capt. Neil Passed Away Last Night

    My dear friend Capt. Neil passed last night. He was as good a man as I've ever met, and he will be greatly missed by everyone who's life he touched. I'm proud to have known him and I'm sure he's with his maker now in a far better place. Rest in Peace, my old friend. With Capt. Mike @...

    Its Ling Oreganata Time! With air-fryer blistered Shishito peppers and sauteed garlic spin-oooch. A nice rose Zinfandel completed the meal. People that consider these junk fish are just flat missing out on some really good eating.

    Took her off the dock today - first trip of the season After a TON of wrench-turning, with various twists and turns in this Spring's protracted mechanical work, none of which were my fault, I had to take her for a long run to ensure everything was copacetic. Knowing it was too early for a true...

    All true. But I’ve used them with grade 8 lockwashers & graphite-based Nevr-Seze for 30 seasons now. So far, so good. Every Spring I go over them to make sure they are tight. Sometimes I find a slightly loosened one, but never two on the same exhaust port. I use SS because I have a fairly wet...

    Had to work through some setbacks but floating now! Been super-busy with work and all sorts of boat-related issues. Turns out that after I completely finished buttoning up the engine work and tried to start her, yeah, HOLY CRAP!, gas shooting 18" straight up out of the carburetor. And as soon...

    Huzzah! My heavy mechanical work is now complete! It was a long, tough row to hoe, but it's behind me now. New factory PCM manifolds and risers, new heat exchanger (Lenco Farmingdale), new starter motor (DB Electric), rebuilt the Sherwood RW pump, new Autolite plugs, factory PCM plug wires...

    Looks like West Marine is going to declare bankruptcy

    https://www.thestreet.com/retail/58-year-old-outdoor-retailer-west-marine-nears-chapter-11-filing Never cared for their high prices, lack of knowledgeable help and weird inventory mix. While this does take away another option if your need is immediate, I for one will not miss them. I suppose...

    Shimano Tranx 200

    For Peconic1801 So, my "power handle" opinion is in the minority, apparently. Most people watch those Skinner videos and see that ridiculously oversized single-ball knob that he uses and think "Well if HE's using it, that's the way to go." Why? They weight too much, unbalance the outfit in...

    Bucktails

    And the knocking of the egg sinker against the bucktail might be an added attractant. Sounds like a sand crab snapping its claws. 🤷‍♂️8-)

    No Matt, I don't recall that boat. But my memory is not what it used to be, so there's that . . . Looks like he kept a nice clean boat.
