So you have a choice...finish some things on your boat and launch it for the season or go fishing on somebody else's boat.... :head: Exactly....go fishing! 5 guys, 28 keeper cod to 40" plus some nice BSBs, and a dozen just-short cod thrown back Now in NJ, that is just unheard of. :fam: :sun...

Opened the wallet and got it done. $1500, which seems f@#$ing steep to me but that was the going rate... Convery Canvas in Toms River,NJ Looks great. The center walk thru rolls up so I can still get the wind in my face when I want it.

Excellent pictures. Comes in handy figuring out where things go. http://www.ultimateangling.co.za/index.php?topic=36.0

This is a great site to waste an hour surfing. http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/rmd.shtml Find your area map and the data buoys near you. some of them give data every hour, wind wave temp. In the Gulf, there is data from many oil rigs. In NJ, I use NDBC station 44065 44025 and 44066...

I was driving past Atlantic Towers in Bayville, NJ and saw this! They have a V20 CC with a Suzuki DF140. I guess they use it to show off their Tower in a Box product at boat shows.

ok you Florida guys, let see some fish porn this winter...:pic:

here's a new take on crab balls. Chop the fish add to seasoned bread crumbs mix in an egg to moisten make balls and dredge them in bread crumbs bake at 400 for 10 minutes would have liked to add sautéed onion and celery but the wife & kid would not eat them if I did. You could also drop them...

again, it seemed there were a lot of fish around Manasquan but not biting. Got a bluefish and a keeper bass trolling plugs. only 2 weeks of fishing left for me, somethings gotta happen...

got out this morning. found birds working about two and a half miles out of Manasquan. saw some bass picking off bait from the surface, could not get a hit. Head boats headed south off of Ortley Beach so I followed. same thing, bait, fish on surface, could not get a hit. saw 2 nice 25-30 pound...

I was invited out on a friend of a friends 50' Ocean for an overnight trip to Toms Canyon. We got 10 yellowfins and 2 big longfins in daylight trolling. No tuna on the chunk. I stayed up all night getting bit off by sharks, I got a 150lb blue to the boat to be cut off. At 2 am, with everyone...

There has been a consistent bite in the river near the bridges. Moving water and a low sun or no sun. Best when when the high tide turns. They bite in both directions. Its good for at least a dozen. We haven't got any keepers, biggest are 24". Best to use a light jig with soft plastic tail. In...

I saw this beauty in the local fishing magazine. Apparently one of the writers owns the boat? Are you on here Don?

The plan came together and we got a Mako at the Humpty Dumpty. Also an 11 pound dolphin. YouTube video posted http://youtu.be/fzguP-_nmsE :happy:

SkunkBoat will be trying out a new set of outriggers Friday. Gonna start trolling sooner this time. Maybe start 15 miles at Humpty Dumpty and troll east across the Mud Hole then southeast to Glory hole. By then we should be tired of reelin them in. We will be on ch 68 if anyone else is out there

I took another Wednesday off for good weather. At first we were trying to get out with a buddy on a bigger boat but there were too many guys. My brother and I decided to trust the forecast and take the V20. As we gassed up Tuesday evening, we saw five or six boats come in with tuna to 90 pounds...

Added another first to the SkunkBoat catch. We weren't really prepared for sharking (2 big rods but tiny useless gaff and no gun). Ever try and tail rope a thresher? So were calling it a "release"... http://youtu.be/eAKpmQabA3U At Monster Ledge of Mud Hole on a freshly caught bluefish...

Used to catch these by the bucketful in the 70's & 80's fishing the Casino pier in Seaside every fall & winter. Then they were gone.(Casino pier is gone now too!) I hadn't caught one since 1990.

Got in last minute with some buddies because the weather forecast was so nice. On a 34 Pursuit. It was so flat I could have done it in my V20. We were at "The Fingers", about 35 miles out of Manasquan. I got the first fish, a 35 or 40 lb mako. Too short for the tournament and the law so we...

My buddy Kenny broke the ice with a nice 30 pounder on a live bunker. Fishing 60ft depth off Sea Girt.
