An angler’s first taste of saltwater fishing is a special thing for everyone, especially Dad.

We were able to crawl all over the Grady White Canyon 456 before its debut at the 2018 Miami International Boat Show.
The fish are out there. Or more accurately, down there, out of sight. And while sometimes it’s just nice to get out and chase them around, striving to improve your chances of hooking up makes your time, fuel, and gear investments look a little more worthwhile. That’s where Mitch Roffer, PhD, comes in. Roffer founded Roffer’s Ocean Fishing Forecasting Service (ROFFS) to help take a chunk of guesswork out of anglers’ offshore fishing experience. And if you’ve got sea-surface temperature charts on your MFD, or are thinking about getting them, you need to know what Roffer has to say.
Not a true powerboat story here but one I thought you guys might enjoy, despite its gravitas. Fifty-three-year-old Donna Chen was killed by an allegedly
This is is Jeremy Walker, a New Zealand fisherman who hauled in this 671-pound bluefin tuna earlier this week. The fish would have brought in an estimated $80,000 at market, had Mr. Walker and his chums decided to sell it. Instead, they ate it.
Welp, it’s that time of year again. I’m headed down to the Brett T. Bailey Mako Rodeo out of Hoffman’s Marina in Brielle, NJ, tomorrow. Ahh, the old stomping grounds. I love getting down to the Jersey Shore in the summertime. Just me, the Boss, and the Situation palling around together on the boardwalk, sharing cotton candy, rocking out to Bon Jovi, maybe grabbing some late night cheeseballs. Fantastic.
I don’t know if you guys have noticed, but lately giant, suicidal fish have been jumping into boats pretty much unprovoked. Seems counterintuitive to survival to me, but I guess that’s why I’m at the top of the food chain and they’re not. (“Oohhh but the mako shark is at the top of the food chain, Kevin! Blah, blah, blah.” No. It’s not. You know why? Because I’ve eaten a mako steak before and a mako has never had a Kevin steak. I know this for a fact.)
I got lost on Youtube the other day doing research for a story and stumbled across this jaw-dropping video. (If you’ve never gotten lost on
