My boat has no name.

I didn't change it too much : Sea Drag'n

I know it's said to be bad luck, but I just changed my boat's name: If I never catch another fish or get struck by lightning, we'll know why!

Great report! And puke is just chum.

Thanks for the report Rick. Glad you got out. Your mystery fish sounds like a big jewfish or nurse shark, but could have been anything. Record gag maybe. Spanish looks like a king to me also, smoke him up. This is an old thread on the subject https://www.bigbendfishing.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=29...

I'm no expert so it could have been a small king but he had the yellow spots like a Spanish does so I just assumed. The water offshore was beautiful but inshore still looked like strong coffee, only managed two short trout.

I seldom go offshore but did yesterday. Hung something I couldn't turn but wanted to see what it was and take a picture of it. I fought that thing and chased it for over an hour and had not gained much on it so tightened the drag and of course he broke the 50# mono. What ever he was, he was slow and...

Went to the nfgfc.org address not available. What am I doing wrong? Is there someone in TallahasseeI I could talk with and or get info on meeting? Thanks Bob Bitters That link is close to 20 years old and I don't think it's still a valid link. Try posting in the NFGFC section: https://www.bigbendfi...

Wow. that's a close call! Glad you saw it before it was too late and got back safely.

If you're willing to drive 80 - 100 miles, you could call these guys. I've dealt with both for many years. Both are honest / reliable and carry a lot of used parts:
Dothan Outboard Repair: (334) 714-5189
B & G Marine: (334) 677-6633

Interesting video! Now I'm having second thoughts.

Thanks rockyg! I sent you an IM with a couple of pictures.

What size skiff? I had a Micro on my Gheenoe LT25 and it worked fantastic. I have an 8' Sportsman on my 18' Action Craft it it works fantastic. Capt. Dave had a Micro one on his Bevertail skiff and it's didn't work nearly as well. He had water intrusion problems and had to send it back several time...

The Power Pole site has a lot of information. https://power-pole.com/micro under the specifications tab it says the mounting footprint is 5 inches wide and 6 inches tall. There are mounting instructions under the manuals tab that might be helpful also. Thank you! I had read the info on the Power Po...

Thinking about adding a Micro Anchor to my skiff but I'm not sure it will fit since the skiff has trim tabs and a gunnel rail that may or may not be in the way. Has anyone got a Power-Pole Micro Anchor installed using the adjustable mounting base? I don't want to order the system until I know for su...

So for those of you who have researched such things - What brand / model seems to be a good buy for the money? . I run a 20 foot SeaArk and to be honest, most of the time I could walk back to shore from the creek or near-shore flat that I am fishing. I I can normally see land wherever I'm fishing b...
