    Boating on the ocean.

    I found out my friend has a humminbird helix 7 GPS. And I think it came with base line charts. So I guess we'll know where were going LOL.

    Boating on the ocean.

    Can I get the graft / mapping online? I think we'll be trying Sandy Hook area first. Like I said we are real amateurs, fish outa water. Can you tell me how to get charts to download into a GPS, or send to me email. I'm not being lazy, just know nothing about it.

    Boating on the ocean.

    So my buddy had a boat that was only safe to fish the inlets, mostly Shark River. Well he got a bigger boat and we want to venture into the ocean. We are rookies!!!! I'd like to know how we can find spots to go to, and see if we can put them in the GPS (also rookies). We'd like not to buy...

    Well the 20th of this month, it will be a year since I lost my best friend. Everyone in the area knew him and loved him. He was a special friend always by my side. I think/know he'd be happy to know I rescued Maya! Maya is a Lab/Retriever mix she was a hand full at first, being a city dog...

    License went up

    Every time I cee an increase, I think back to when they introduced the trout stamp. The claim was to have more, bigger, and healthier fish. Well none of it happened!!!!

    Double hook line

    I have a question. As you see I made the double hook rigs. The orginal plan was 2 hooks and the weight on the bottom. Now I'm thinking 2 hooks and a 2oz jig head in the bottom. 1 hook white 1hook pink and the jig head white gulp. Question is are 3 hooks allowed in NJ?

    St Croix Disgust and tying my own blanks

    I build MHX blanks from Mudhole. I have never had a problem with Mudhole. MHX have a lifetime warranty . They have you take a picture of the break, to see if it was an accidental break. I built a 7' saltwater rod for a friend (MHX). He tried to life 2 horseshoe crabs, straight up on a jetty and...

    Double hook line

    I want the bait straight on the hook. Plus I find it hard to thread the mullet on a circle hook. I couldn't grasp how to tie the knot to keep the loop from twisting around the line while fishing. So I'm trying shrink tube, with a small split shot, to keep the tube down at the line.

    Double hook line

    Does anyone use a double loop (2 hooks) line? If so I want to fish for fluke using gulp mullet, but want to get away from circle hooks. What type and size do you use, if you do this?

    Bad day on the water today. Shark river Belmar, 3 guys in the boat., 5 hrs, 3 good bites 1- 17.5" fluke. And didn't see anyone else catch. Brought home and salted most of a quart of killies. The only plus for me is won't be buying any bait for awhile, with all the killies and spearing I have.
