Looks fun, id probably get stuck behind a semi or some old bat in a corvette doing 20mph..... creeping through the curves in a Ford closed sleigh, slowly we go! Cussing all the way!
Can you spare a moment to hear about our lord and savior voldemort?
Went out for swordfish yesterday. First bite was before we got the second rod completely deployed. Ended up 4 for 6 with a nice 75inch fish visiting our ice bath to make him feel better

You gotta know . . . some guy tried it.
Yes, this was about 100 miles south of Harwich at Veatch canyon. We left at about 5am fished till 230 then was back at the dock by 7pm. We had an engine go down halfway home so we had to come in on 2 costing us about an hour with time spent trying to fix it and the slower pace after losing that engine. It was fixed today and ready for another if the weather allows. One of the most fun trips you can have. The owner is a very good fisherman so I can just bust balls and and play captain. We had a bite and landed a fish in the first 15 minutes taking all the what if pressure off. The owner's goal was just getting in the time with technique and making sure that everything tackle and rigging wise is working as expected. The thought of catching fish is obviously expected however daytime swordfishing is quite technical in how you set your bait so as to not tangle up on itself or on another line. In our case, we were trying to fish 3 lines but because the action was so good we didn't get to deploy the 3rd rod till about 2pm when it started to slow. Then the next fish ruined a bait so rather than set up another bait we finished with just the 2 which is a normal set. We landed all the fish with another bait still fishing and it paid off. The cool part about daytime is you never know until you see it. The bait is down 1200-1400 or more feet. The fish will take it or play with it until it eats. Then in most cases they will swim to the surface as the weight will hook them and keep tension. You reel up as fast as you can for the 400-500yds of line. We put the weight 4-9#s depending on current and wind at the end of the 100' leader. That is when the fun begins. By removing the weight it changes the fight. Some are easy but some are crazy wild. We had easy yesterday. Nice when there is no drama
Get out there tomorrow. Looks like weather is holding until Friday.
The look of that water this time of year is unexpected, very nice.
Are the warm water fish extending their stay?
Still seeing Whites?
Wife and I finally got the Christmas tree up today.
what the fuck is wrong with you dude!.......it is FAR too early to be decorating for christmas.
Wind is the menace not temps. Doesn't look good for the rest of the week or wknd. We had water temps to 63.xx so not near the 42-45 degree threshold which is usually the end of the visitors. Swordfish though are here through the winter for the most part. They spend the day in the mesopelagic zone of the ocean where the temps are closer to 33 than the surface temps you can easily measure. Tunas are different of course.
There are still some yellowfin around along with some albacore and bigeye tuna were caught about 20 miles south of us yesterday by a longliner fishing along the break out there where it is 72 degree water. Caused by an anomoly called a warm core eddy that came off the gulf stream back in June. It will stay warm like that as long as it continues to be fed by the stream. Funny no cows fart out there yet it continues lol.
The warm water fish usually stay much longer than the fisherman that have boats capable of fishing for them. The marlin are mostly gone but you could still get a white marlin along the canyons. That eddy would definately hold blue marlin still but they would be gone from the canyons as a rule. The tunas will start to leave and by 55 degrees all but the bluefin will have moved south towards the gulfstream and either east towards the mid atlantic ridge or south on the eastern side of the stream. Bluefin are the last of the tunas leaving in January from the inshore waters and Februaryish from the canyons for the breeding areas in the gulf or mid atlantic ridge and where ever else that is. The biggest swords will move to Venezula through the winter months but will linger along the continetial shelf along the eastern coast moving when the food or condition dicate they have too till the February moon. They thenget serious about breeding off of Venezula in March and April then back they come.
Alot of this info comes from archival tag data. And you can confirm it by watching the fishing reports along the coast. Just watch the full moon dates and look where what is being caught. Match it to the tag data and the picture puts the pieces and timing together so even i can follow along
I was driving down the road and I was like WTF? No way?
So I backed up and sure enough. Could they not get the tub into the house?
Ohh yeah, there's a package heat pump on the porch roof in case you didn't see it

Slows the meth heads down from stealing the copper out of it.
Eric Trump tweeted this. I feel like they know something.
I know it will be hard for some to believe, but I just sold several razors 
I just had some too nice to use and some that while desirable from a collector perspective were not something I actually used or enjoyed.
What is left are the ones I use and enjoy.
Shocking I know...

I have installed a few package units like that.
