It is confusing how common names are thrown around and used. What is one fish in long island sound is something else across the globe. I believe most of the world calls this shark a Smooth dogfish. ...

True to your word; I just read the 12/27 report, thanks. I made the decision to go forward with the Maine trip. It will be tough getting out of Connecticut, but moderate snow expected North. The wo ...

Has no one been ice fishing? There's gotta be somewhere with 2"+. Any thickness reports?

Have any shad been been coming out of the water yet? I have some time to get out later today and they are a fun fish to catch. I have had luck in August in past years.

Today my family and I went down to the RI shore (Weekapaug) for some beach time and, of course, fishing. Between my stepfather and I we hooked up on Fluke, Porgy, Black seabass, a Northern Grizzly se ...

This is the first Opening Day in 5 years that I am not working! I plan on celebrating at Black Pond in Meriden.

A cross between a tuna and a cod, huh? Gotta love surprises! I always hear good things about that spot and then when I plan out my year I never get it in.
