I can tie them in my sleep... we lose a lot of rigs when bottom fishing

Seabass are still filling the cooler along with ling(red hake). Found some really nice seabass out at the Dave Moran (18 miles from Manasquan) but Sea Girt reef and Klondike rocks still have keeper fish. I caught a HADDOCK in NJ! Delicious! Dave Moran was covered up in sand eels. We saw two...

:nice: nice

Finally in the water! Got out Sunday (twice with different crews) for limits of Black Seabass at Sea Girt reef. 60 fish for the day, plus some red hake. The wind won't stop... Word is there are giant BFT at The Farms.

Not the same "whiting". Our "whiting" in Northeast are silver hake. and yes they are pretty much gone in the NY Bight. Those fish pictured are what we would call croakers. Member of the drum family along with redfish, black drum, weakfish, speckled trout and spot (spotted croaker aka...

2 strokes suck. They stink. Oil cost money and you burn it. They get ****ty mpg. They are loud. They don't make them anymore. You gonna stock up on 8 track tapes, cassettes, CDs, floppy disks, Nokia phones, R12 refrigerant, Zima....?:nut:

maybe other countries have been testing our capabilities and responses for 75 years and we just never say anything publicly so they don't know if we did or didn't see them or shoot them down. Maybe everyone should just shut the F up about the ballons already...

yes, based on its components it could be cheaper. However, it requires the company to have 24/7 satelitte time and 24/7 human employees... worldwide. You don't pay a monthly fee for an EPIRB. They need the money for 10+ years of service up front. An EPIRB is registered to a VESSEL. You can't...

yep sorry. It was Clearance online last week, probably only one left and its gone now. They sell Orion branded one now $99

I have a Weems & Plath SOS distress light in my ditch bag. As you say, never expires so I'm always good for USCG. I still carry a bag of expired flares and I do also have a Flare gun & flares I'm offshore, overnight in my grady. Hey Look at West Marine. They have them on clearance $42 !!!!

heheh, Lead sinkers haven't been 10 cents an ounce in this century... I buy in bulk 5 lb boxes on Amazon Prime. Best prices, get them in a few days.

nice :party:

Bass are still around but the bite is not as crazy. Guess you gotta be there when they are all hungry at the same time. My sister got this 45" fish Sunday morning off Mantoloking. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmQ7W8ouM50&t=4s

Another beautiful morning at Mantoloking. Stripers and a Humpback gorging on bunker This time I got some GoPro video https://youtu.be/1CgQwIZQn0k

5 bass over 40" and a bunch of misses this morning on Mantoloking beach ...snagging live bunker

hmmmm, mine did not have that. Is it flat to the hull or is it a channel? I would imagine its the same plywood as the stringers.

Not sure what you mean. There is no wooden keel in a v20. Just glass hull with stringers and bulkheads. There is a piece of plywood glassed into the bilge for mounting a bilge pump and there is some plywood glassed in for backing the bow eye. There is a strip around the hull sides for screwing...

Albright can be tied much faster. for Albies I tie a 1/4 oz or 3/8 oz jig head(with a 4" Fin-S body) directly to the braid with a palomar. Cast far, Crank fast. I use the same for stripers at the dock and fluke in shallow water. Caught some dolphin on it too. You lose some to bluefish.

I don't use more than a rod length of mono as a leader on spinning gear. A long mono topshot kills the benefit of braid...the long smooth casts. Lately I have been using a barrel swivel and 2 or 3ft of mono if I use a leader. Problem can be winding the swivel into the top eye and also too much...
