We were at Barcardi area on Friday 7/15, left dock at 2 AM, trolled in the area from false light to 2 PM. Whales, dolphin, tuna chicks, shearwaters, lotsa life in the area...but only 2 knockdowns for us, 1 of which was lost (along with a $120 wide tracker and 100 yds of line) immediately due to...

YFT are close at Little Italy and vicinity right now. Try trolling with wide trackers or jigging if the marks are deep. 50 pound class fish were caught yesterday by my buddies who left on another boat. I was on the way out at 4 AM yesterday (7/17) on a friend's boat and had a motor quit on us at...

Air locked? Put a freshwater hose onto the end of the saltwater hose outlet and flush it backwards under pressure. Then try it again and see it it works normally...

He can bring it to your driveway y'know....

"She looks so much better naked" (without stripes)

I see you are in Florida, dunno where, but if you are anywhere near Miami or Ft. Lauderdale, call Luis Costa at 305 219 1784. Costa Oil has a fleet of fuel delivery trucks that will bring Rec90 right to your dock for the BEST price around. (minimum 100 gallons)

Just replace the broken pin with a bolt....

Etec G2's, Garmin Autopilot, Pro Fish Windlass. Etecs for dependability, torque and power WITH economy. Garmin Autopilot for solo troll patterns, ability to concentrate on finding fish instead of constantly checking navigation and fuel economy (less gas is wasted when you run a straight line...

You are talking about BIG Bluefin, right? There is NO WAY you are going to "land" him off the gunnels either. You are going to have to fight him until he is tired enough to get him CLOSE to the stern, then hand-line the leader and the fish up along side the boat close enough to either gaff or...

The rod swivels in the holder right? So, use your steering wheel and motors to help the angler fight the fish by keeping the rod pointed OVER THE STERN, not out over the Stbd side. There won't be as much stress on the gunnel when the force is applied lengthwise as opposed to sideways....

Try this: Swap the fuel lines that go to your motors coming out of the fuel selector valves. So, now when the selector says "aux", its actually fuel from main, and when its says "main", its actually fuel from aux. If the problem now occurs when using the "aux" position and now doesn't happen...

If you are looking for a portable jump starter, here is what I bought a couple years ago. Works great, has more than enough enough power to start your boat motor, car or truck. I charge it at the start of my season and it hardly loses any charge at all by the end, six months later. Excellent...

How much do you think that boat is worth right now? What would you pay for it if you were in the market? In my opinion, the classic 25 Trophy Pro is one of the BEST day-trip fishing boats you can buy, so a restored one like this (or mine) is priceless.

Found this on You Tube and sent this to my buddy who owns an 87, thought I'd share it with you folks.

After removing the set screw and spraying some penetrating oil on it, use a long screwdriver as a lever to pry it up bit by bit slowly from different angles. Wrap the tip of the screwdriver with a cloth so it doesn't dig in and gouge your boat, and position it so the shaft of the screwdriver...

And if you cant find a suitable plug, use a wine bottle cork to seal it up. Shave the cork with a knife so it's a bit wider than the hole, jam it in the hole, shave off the top of the excess cork so that it's flush with the bottom of the bracket, and then cover the hole with 4200. Enjoy...

Or, if none of the suggestions above work and you cant free it, just leave it open and install a new shut off valve on the hose itself.

Leave off the stripes. "She looks better naked"

IMHO: Get a good harness like the Black Magic, for REALLY big fish and fight standing up. https://www.blackmagictackle.com/product_category/harness-and-gimbal-belts/ For comfort fighting most fish, just use a Rod Cushion like this...
