I was at the ramp pulling the boat for some summertime projects. Backed down the Explorer and put it in Park before setting the brake. I NEVER do that! Went to pull out and discovered why I was told to always set the brake. Shift lever stuck solid! Can't get out of PARK. Tried jumping up and...

Got the shirts Thanks! Boat floats! Launched in the afternoon & rigged up the slip. Took a quick ride out to what was left of the fleet on bunker schools. Beautiful weather, we snagged 2 bunker & gave it 20 minutes. My helper had to "be somewhere" at 5 so we called it a day. I was so sure that...

As the season comes to an end I took a Thursday off work and went solo. Took a run 12 mile to Seaside Park and found a pod of bunker pinned near the beach by blues and bass. As I got in close there were 2 guys on kayaks coming out to fish them too. I heard one say "Holy sh.. did you see the...

Striped Bass is great fried as nuggets! I use a 50-50 mix of Panko bread crumbs and Golden Dipped Fish Fry (or Cajun Fry). No egg, just wet with milk and shake in a tub of the mix. Let it sit for 2 minutes before frying. As a side to them I deep fry Mrs T's pierogies (do them first before the...

10-10-2010 --- 27 pounds. Straight out Manasquan Inlet past the red can to 80 ft. On a A27 w/ green tail. Went deep to get away from "relentless" small weakfish. Managed one decent weakie out of 100! Loads of sand eels out there. Gonna be a great fall!

Once again I put off all cosmetic work on the Skunkboat, launched and went fishing. Can't worry about rod boxes and deck paint when the stripers are on bunker. And it has been awesome! Late May I had an 11 bass morning, all 20 to 30 pounds. I picked this 36 pounder on June 8. This is the new...
